问题     Have you ever thought of the similarities between the cinema
and the theatre? The cinema has learnt a great deal from the theatre
about presentation. Gone are the days when crowds were packed on
wooden benches in tumbledown buildings to gape at the antics of
silent, jerking figures on a screen, where some poor pianist made                   【B1】______
frantic efforts to translate the drama into music. These days it is quite
easier to find a cinema that surpasses a theatre in luxury. Even in                 【B2】______
small easy villages, cinemas are spacious, well lit and well-ventilated
places where one can sit for comfort. The projectionist has been                    【B3】______
trained to give the audience time to prepare themselves for the film
they are to see. Talk drops to a whisper and then fades out together.               【B4】______
As soon as the cinema is in darkness, spotlights are focused on the
curtains which are drawn slowly apart, often to the accompany of                    【B5】______
music, to reveal the title of the film. Everything has been carefully
contrived so that the spectator will never actually see the naked
screen which will remind to him all too sharply that what he is about               【B6】______
to see is nothing merely shadows flickering on a white board.                       【B7】______
However much the cinema tries to simulate from the conditions in a theatre,         【B8】______
it never fully succeeds. Nothing can be equal to the awe and
sense of hushing expectation which is felt by a theatre audience as                 【B9】______
the curtain is slowly risen.                                                        【B10】______
选项
答案 where→while
解析 本题属于语义衔接错误。本句前半句意为：过去的日子已经一去不复返了，那时人们在摇摇欲坠的房子里挤坐在木板凳上，目瞪口呆地看着银幕上无声的、闪动的人物的滑稽动作。后面部分意为：某个可怜的钢琴师兴奋地将戏剧用音乐表现出来。这里钢琴师是真实存在的，不是银幕里的人物，因此后面部分不是screen的定语从句。从语义可以判断，这里表示观众看无声电影和钢琴师演奏音乐两件事同时进行，因此用while符合语义逻辑关系。
