Musicologists therefore hypothesize that thediatonic musical scale was developed and used thousands of years before it wasadopted by Western musicians.
Which of the following, if true, moststrongly supports the hypothesis?
A. Bone flutes were probably the only musical instrument made by Neanderthals. B. No musical instrument that is known to have used a diatomic scale is of an earlier date than the flute found at the Neanderthal campsite. C.The flute was made from a cave-bear bone and the campsite at which the flute fragment was excavated was in a cave that also contained skeletal remains of cave bears. D. Flutes are the simplest wind instrument that can be constructed to allow playing a diatonic scale. E. The cave-bear leg bone used to make the Neanderthal flute would have been long enough to make a flute capable of playing a complete diatonic scale.作者: ann110726 时间: 2009-11-3 12:02
此题我也做错了，但是分析下来，只有E稍微沾点边，其他都不对。你是不是选的B？作者: gmat2954 时间: 2009-11-3 12:48
A&C选项明显是不沾的，二B强调的是乐器怎么样，而D和E则侧重于演奏一种什么乐曲，显然D和E更靠谱，排除B，接下来再比D&E，发现D里面有个simplest, 这样该句的重点就在这个乐器了，而E则没有这种让你不爽的地方，所以比较下来，还是E好些~作者: gmat928 时间: 2009-11-3 21:14
新发现的一段骨笛有四个音阶，这四个音阶是西方音乐七个音阶的最后四个音阶，而西方音乐的七个音阶是在文艺复兴时期普遍使用的。音乐研究学家因此提出一个假设：这七个音阶在西方音乐普遍使用（文艺复兴）前的几千年前就已经存在了。
