As defined by Greek philosophers and ancient Indian philosophers, music is viewed as tones ordered horizontally as melodies and vertically as harmonies.

Music comes in many forms, and most countries have a style of their own.【C1】______the turn of the century when jazz was born, America had no prominent【C2】______of its own. No one knows exactly when jazz was【C3】______, or by whom. But it began to be【C4】______in the early 1900s. Jazz is America’s contribution to【C5】______music. In contrast to classical music, which【C6】______formal European traditions, jazz, the art of expression, is spontaneous and free-form.

选项
A、music
B、song
C、style
D、melody
答案
C
解析
篇章理解。music意为“音乐”,song意为“歌曲”,melody意为“旋律”,style意为“风格”。根据上文most countries have a style of their own可看出,本句意思是“爵士乐出现的那个世纪之初,美国在音乐方面还没有自己突出的风格”,因此选C。美国早期虽没有自己风格的音乐,但也有音乐存在,故可排除A。
