Before there was the written word, there was the language of dance. Dance expresses love and hate, joy and sorrow, life and death, and everything else in between.(22)Dance in America is everywhere. We dance from Florida to Alaska, from horizon to horizon and coast to coast. We dance at weddings, birthdays, office parties or just to fill the time. “I adore dancing,” says Lester Bridges, the owner of a dance studio in a small town in Iowa. “I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life.” Bridges runs dance classes for all ages. “Teaching dance is wonderful.(23)My older students say it makes them feel young. It’s marvellous to watch them. For many of them, it’s a way of meeting people and having a social life.” So why do we dance?(24)“I can tell you about one young couple,” says Bridges. “They arrive at the class in a bad mood and they leave with a smile. Dancing seems to change their mood completely.”
So, do we dance in order to make ourselves feel better, calmer, healthier? (25)Andrea Hillie, a dance teacher says, “Dance, like the rhythm of a beating heart, is life. Even after all these years, I want to get better and better. I keep practicing even when I’m exhausted. I find it hard to stop. Dancing reminds me I’m alive.”
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.
22. What does the passage say about dance in America?
23. What do we know about Lester Bridges’ dance studio?
24. What happened to the young couple after they attended Lester Bridges’ class?
25. What did Andrea Hillie say about dance?
选项
A、Their state of mind improved.
B、They became better dancers.
C、They enjoyed better health.
D、Their relationship strengthened.
答案
A
解析
浏览四个选项,从选项中的improved,dancers,enjoyed,relationship,strengthened等词可推测,此题与某些人的关系或状态有关。题干问的是年轻夫妇在参加莱斯特·布里吉斯的舞蹈课之后有什么变化。短文中提到,莱斯特说这对夫妻来教室时心情不好,但却是笑着离开的。舞蹈似乎完全改变了他们的情绪。由此可知,答案为A。B项(他们成了更好的舞者)、C项(他们的健康状况变得更佳)和D项(夫妻关系变得更好)在短文中均未提及,故排除。
