It has been thought and said that Africans are born with musical talent. Because music is so important in the lives of many Africans and because so much music is performed in Africa, we are inclined to think that all Africans are musicians. The impression is strengthened when we look at ourselves and find that we have become largely a society of musical spectators. Music is important to us, but most of us can be considered consumers rather than producers of music. We have records, televisions, concerts, and radios to fulfill many of our musical needs. In most situations where music is performed in our culture it is not difficult to distinguish the audience from the performers, but such is often not the case in Africa. Alban Ayipaga, a Kasena semiprofessional (半职业性的) musician from northern Ghana, says that when his flute (长笛) and drum ensemble (合奏组) is performing, "Anybody can take part." This is true, but Dasena musicians recognize that not all people are equally capable of taking part in the music. Some can sing along with the drummers, but relatively few can drum and even fewer can play the flute along with the ensemble. It is fairly common in Africa for there to be an ensemble of expert musicians surrounded by others who join in by clapping, singing, or somehow adding to the totality (全部) of musical sound. Performances often take place in an open area (that is, not on a stage) and so the lines between the performing nucleus and the additional performers, active spectators, and passive spectators may be difficult to draw from our point of view. [br] The difference between us and Africans, as far as music is concerned, is that______.
选项
A、most of us are consumers while most of them are producers of music
B、we are musical performers and they are semiprofessional musicians
C、most of us are passive spectators while they are active spectators
D、we are the audience and they are the additional performers
答案
C
解析
本题干扰性最强的是A项,因为文中第五行说:“音乐对我们很重要,我们大多数人应该被看作是音乐的消费者而非音乐的创造者。”但是,并不能由此得出大多数非洲人是音乐的创造者这一结论。故A项应排除。B项和D项在文章中未提到。根据文章第六、七行和最后一句也可推断出,C项是正确答案。
