20.[单选题] All music comes from one's heart and soul. When emotions stir in one's heart, it will find expression through a proper combination of sounds.
A_consisting of various rhythmical sounds is called music. (The Book of Rites)
A. Tone
B. tune
题目解答
答案
B. tune
解析
本题考查英语词汇在特定语境中的准确运用,需结合上下文理解空格处应填入的名词。关键点在于:
- 明确主语指代:空格处的名词需与后文的"music"形成定义关系;
- 区分选项含义:"tune"强调"旋律/曲调"的整体性,"tone"侧重"音调/语气"的单一性;
- 联系中文典籍:题目引用《礼记》中关于音乐的定义,需对应"音乐"作为完整组合的概念。
语境解析
原文定义音乐为"由各种有节奏的声音组成"的事物。空格处需填入一个整体性概念,而非单一声音属性:
- "tune"指完整的旋律或曲调,符合音乐作为声音组合的整体性;
- "tone"通常指单个音的音色或音调,无法涵盖"组合"的定义。
选项对比
- A. Tone:偏向描述声音的性质(如"温和的语气"、"乐器的音色"),无法体现"组合"关系;
- B. Tune:指由多个音符构成的旋律,与"各种节奏声音的组合"高度契合。
