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、happy
B、solemn
C、funeral
D、sad
答案
A
解析
篇章理解。根据上下文glad to be alive可知,这里应该与前文中slow,solemn等词的意思相反,故选A。其他选项中,solemn意为“庄严的,庄重的”,funeral为名词,意为“葬礼”,sad意为“悲伤的”,均不符合句意。
