The history of Western music probably begins with the music of the Christian Church. But all through the Middle Ages and even to the present time men have continually turned back to Greece and Rome for instruction, for correction, and for inspiration in several fields of work; this has been true in music-though with some important differences. Roman literature, for example, never ceased to exert influence in the Middle Ages, and this influence became much greater in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries when more Roman works became known; at the same time, too, the surviving literature of Greece was gradually recovered. But in literature, as well as in some other fields(notably sculpture), medieval or Renaissance artists had the advantage of being able to study and, if they so desired, imitate the models of antiquity. The actual poems or statues were before them. In music this was not so. The Middle Ages did not possess a single example of Greek or Roman music — nor, it may be added, are we today much better off. About a dozen examples — half of them were fragments—of Greek music have been discovered, nearly all from comparatively late periods, but there is no general agreement as to just how they were meant to sound; there are no authentic remains of ancient Roman music. So we, as well as the men of medieval times, derive nearly all our knowledge of this in the ancient civilizations at second hand from a few rather vague accounts of performances, but mostly from theatrical treatises and literary descriptions. [br] In the passage the author implied that______.
选项
A、music did not exist before the Middle Ages
B、we were not better off than the Greek and Roman men
C、there was not enough evidence to prove that Western music was originated from the ancient Greece and Rome
D、there were no authentic remains of the ancient Roman music
答案
C
解析
本题中,A、B两项明显不对;D项是明确指出的,不是作者的暗示。文中说到人们企图将西方音乐追溯到古希腊、古罗马时代,但无法考证,因为没有完整可靠的那个时代的音乐保留,残留的也只是一些片段而已,因此C项符合文意。
