CARDIFF, Wales. Poets, singers and musicians from across the globe gathered in Wales to celebrate the tradition of storytelling.
"It might seem strange that people still want to listen in age of watching television, but this is an unusual art form whose time has come again," said David Ambrose, director of Beyond the Border, an international storytelling festival in Wales.
"Some of the tales, like those the Inuit from Canada, are thousands of years old. So our storytellers have come from distant lands to connect us with the distance of time," he said early this month.
Two Inuit women, both in their mid 60s, are among the few remaining who can do Kntadjait, or throat singing, which has few words and much sound. Their art is governed by the cold of their surroundings, forcing them to say little but listen attentively. Ambrose started the festival in 1993, after several years of working with those reviving (coming back into use or existence) storytelling in Wales.
"It came out of a group of people who wanted to reconnect with traditions and as all the Welsh are storytellers, it was in good hands here." Ambrose said.
According to the writer, which of the following is NOT true?
选项
A、Storytelling did not come back until 1993 in Wales.
B、Storytelling is always well received in Wales.
C、Storytelling has a long history in Wales.
D、Storytelling once stopped in Wales.
答案
A
解析
细节题。文中说Ambrose started the festival in 1993,Ambrose 1993年创办了这个节,但并不等于说讲故事的传统是到1993年才恢复的,这是两码事,所以答案为A。注意:题目要求选not true的说法。
