【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. So is music, whether you listen to it on the radio on your drive to work. Both language and music play a huge role in our culture. 1

Both language and music have a writing system. In English we record language using a collection of letters. In the same way, we use notes to keep a record of music. Just as you are reading this collection of letters on the screen and find meaning in it, musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music which we can hear. 2 By writing pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time. I can read the ideas or hear the music of someone who lived hundreds of year ago, which is really amazing.

3 You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language they use. In the same way, we know that styles of music are different around the world, giving us the chance to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. 4 If you don’t like Britain pop music, you may love the energy of Latin American salsa music.

Both share feelings. How do you know that I am angry? Of course you may be able to see it in my face, but you will know for sure through my words. 5 Music can show you exactly how the musician was or is feeling, and allows us to share in that feeling. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness. On the other hand, you would surely listen to sad music when you were feeling down.

A.Both have to do with culture.

B.Here are some of their similarities.

C.They have some separate characters.

D.Just as you read English, you can read music.

E.This also means that there is something for everyone!

F.This means everyone can learn both language and music!

G.Like language, music can sound angry, sorry as well as happy.
