GRE阅读题目解析:黑人福音音乐

2017-01-20 17:30:00来源:网络

  P5

  1

  This is not to deny that the Black gospel music of the early twentieth century differed in important ways from the slave spirituals.

  这并非是否认二十世纪早期的黑人福音音乐在很多重要方面与黑人圣歌不同。

  2

  Whereas spirituals were created and disseminated in folk fashion, gospel music was composed, published, copyrighted, and sold by professionals.

  不同于圣歌以民歌方式创作和传播,福音音乐由专业人士作曲,发行,获得版权,以及销售。

  3

  Nevertheless, improvisation remained central to gospel music.

  然而,即兴创作始终是福音音乐的核心要素。

  4

  One has only to listen to the recorded repertoire of gospel songs to realize that Black gospel singers rarely sang a song precisely the same way twice and never according to its exact musical notation.

  一个人只要听过福音歌曲的全部出版曲目就会发现,黑人福音歌手很少把一首歌完全相同地演唱两次,而且从不严格遵循乐谱。

  5

  They performed what jazz musicians call "head arrangements" proceeding from their own feelings and from the way "the spirit" moved them at the time.

  他们采取一种爵士乐手称为 “head arragements” 的表演方式,从自己的感受出发,接受 “灵魂” 指引。

  (head arrangement 【RHWU】(Jazz, Popular Music.)a roughly outlined musical arrangement that is played from memory and is often learned by ear. 显然我不能同意 “天资安排” 的译法,什么和什么啊。)

  6

  This improvisatory element was reflected in the manner in which gospel music was published. (122 words)

  这种即兴元素反应在福音音乐的出版方式中。

  9.The author mentions "folk fashion" most likely in order to

  (A) counter an assertion about the role of improvisation in music created by Black people

  (B) compare early gospel music with gospel music written later in the twentieth century

  (C) make a distinction between gospel music and slave spirituals

  (D) introduce a discussion about the dissemination of slave spirituals

  (E) describe a similarity between gospel music and slave spirituals

  选 C

  回到原文:

  Whereas spirituals were created and disseminated in folk fashion, gospel music was composed, published, copyrighted, and sold by professionals.

  whereas 在此引导了一种对比关系,spirituals in folk fashion 和 gospel music by professionals 的对比,所以。

  10.Of the following sentences, which is most likely to have immediately preceded the passage?

  (A) Few composers of gospel music drew on traditions such as the spiritual in creating their songs.

  (B) Spirituals and Black gospel music were derived from the same musical tradition.

  (C) The creation and singing of spirituals, practiced by Black Americans before the Civil War, continued after the war.

  (D) Spirituals and gospel music can be clearly distinguished from one another.

  (E) Improvisation was one of the primary characteristics of the gospel music created by Black musicians.

  选 B

  让我们补齐文章缺失的第一句话,先看看第二句怎么说的:

  This is not to deny that the Black gospel music of the early twentieth century differed in important ways from the slave spirituals.

  这不是要否认两者不同,那么我们可以推测,原来的首句肯定说了两者的相似或相同点,所以第二句才说不是要否认它们的不同。

  所以选 B,有不同理解欢迎来怼。
