【解析】

本文為記敘文。本文主要敘述了音樂劇從公元前534—1959年的發(fā)展歷史。

1細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)1930-1939部分中的“Competition for audiences from low-price movies encouraged writers to experiment with new themes, moving towards more naturalistic dialogue.”可知,因為低價電影對觀眾(有吸引力的)競爭讓作家們?nèi)L試新的主題,走向更自然的對話,這讓音樂劇在20世紀30年代朝著新的方向發(fā)展。即其他類型的娛樂的流行。分析選項可知C

2細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)1940-1949 ENTER THE GOLDEN AGE部分中的“Theatre in the 1940s became more wide-ranging ,integrating complicated plots with song and dance.”,可知,40年代即1940-1949時的劇院變得更加廣泛,音樂劇將復(fù)雜的情節(jié)與歌舞結(jié)合起來。”由此可知,在這段時間,音樂劇變得更加復(fù)雜和戲劇化。分析選項可知C項正確。

3細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一部分中的最后一句“On Broadway, West Side Story became the first show that used dance to drive the story telling!笨芍West Side Story成為第一個運用舞蹈來講述故事的節(jié)目!became the first show”即是“a new way”的一種語意轉(zhuǎn)化。由此可知West Side Story是以一種新的方式(使用舞蹈)講述故事。分析選項可知A項符合題意。

文章主題和中心思想的闡述往往需要大量細節(jié)信息的支持,這些細節(jié)對于理解全文內(nèi)容至關(guān)重要,同時也是歸納和概括文章中心思想的基礎(chǔ)。細節(jié)理解是指原文提到了某事,某種現(xiàn)象或理論,題干一般針對原文具體敘述的事情本身提問。一般包括直接理解題(在原文中直接找到答案,常用why/what/when/who/how等提問)。語意轉(zhuǎn)化題(需要將題目信息與原文相關(guān)信息進行語意上的轉(zhuǎn)換,兩者存在著表達上的差異,有時需要進行加工整理后方能得出結(jié)論)、數(shù)字計算題,排列順序題、圖表圖畫題等。抓住文章中的事實和細節(jié)是做好該類題的關(guān)鍵,也是做好其他類題的基礎(chǔ)。如第3小題就是語意轉(zhuǎn)化題。根據(jù)最后一部分中的最后一句“On Broadway, West Side Story became the first show that used dance to drive the story telling!笨芍,West Side Story成為第一個運用舞蹈來講述故事的節(jié)目。“became the first show”即是“a new way”的一種語意轉(zhuǎn)化。由此可知West Side Story是以一種新的方式(使用舞蹈)講述故事。分析選項可知A項符合題意。
