This is not to deny that the Black gospel music of the early twentieth century differed in important ways from the slave spirituals.Whereas spirituals were created and disseminated in folk fashion,gospel music was composed,published,copyrighted,and sold by professionals.Nevertheless,improvisation remained central to gospel music.One has only to listen to the recorded repertoire of gospel songs to realize that Black gospel singers rarely sang a song precisely the same way twice and never according to its exact musical notation .They performed what jazz musicians call “head arrangements” proceeding from their own feelings and from the way “the spirit” moved them at the time.This improvisatory element was reflected in the manner in which gospel music was published.
10.Of the following sentences,which is most likely to have immediately preceded the passage?
（A） Few composers of gospel music drew on traditions such as the spiritual in creating their songs.
（B） Spirituals and Black gospel music were derived from the same musical tradition.
（C） The creation and singing of spirituals,practiced by Black Americans before the Civil War,continued after the war.
（D） Spirituals and gospel music can be clearly distinguished from one another.
（E） Improvisation was one of the primary charac－ teristics of the gospel music created by Black musicians.
这道题为什么选B?文章开头不是说This is not to deny了吗?难道前面的内容不应该在讲是gospel music和spirituals之间的不同?

政府的观点是白天也打开车灯会减少交通事故。
A 由于另开了一条路，所以测试路段通行量减少（如果是真的，那么事故减少是车辆基数变小的缘故，与开不开车灯无关。实际上是反驳了政府的观点。）

政府的观点是白天也打开车灯会减少交通事故。
A 由于另开了一条路，所以测试路段通行量减少（如果是真的，那么事故减少是车辆基数变小的缘故，与开不开车灯无关。实际上是反驳了政府的观点。）
B 在明显位置提示了司机要开灯（如果是真的，那么司机一路被警示，所以事故减少，也削弱了“开灯有用”的观点。）
C 天气不好的时候司机本来就会开灯（与政府观点无关）
D 白天开灯会缩短车灯寿命，导致更换更频繁（与政府观点无关）
E 测试路段包含了加州司机经常遇到的多种路况（证明测试的可信度，因而也就支持了改测试的结论——白天开灯好。）
【题目中有的选项就是会与问题无关，也有的与问题相反，就是要考你能不能从这些里边找出符合问题要求的，从而考查你的阅读能力。】
