TPO12 聽力第3LECTURE的第9題 - 英檢

這篇是在講OPERA的進化

Q:what does the professor say about music in French opera?

A.It resembled sacred church music
B.It often ispired French novelist to write great pieces of literature
C.It revolved mainly around solo pieces
D.It was secondary to the rhythmic flow of language

答案是D
原文:
The French said opera auto-reflect the rhythm and Kevin of dramatic literature, bearing in mind that
we are talking about the golden age in French literature. And so the music was
secondary, if you will, to the dramatic Kevin of language, to the way the
rhythm of language was used to express feeling and used to add drama and of course
as a result instead of arias or solos, which would come to dominated Italian
opera.

但是不太懂這段的意思

他說music是secondary,而rhythm of language成為dominated
那不就跟D選相衝突了嗎?
還是我解讀錯誤= ="

另外:
1.Kevin在這裡有什麼特殊意思嗎@@?

2.本篇的另一段
Opera, as we think of it, is of course a rather restive form. It is the
melodious drama of ancient Greek theater, the term ‘melodious drama’ being shortened
eventually to ‘melodrama’ because operas frequently are melodramatic, not to
say unrealistic.

這段話:
a rather restive form--->好像是有點不安 難駕馭的形式，感覺好像怪怪的?

我聽起來好像是a resurrective(但是好像沒這個字= =") form--->一個復甦的型式?

這段話不知道該怎麼理解@@"

有請大大指教~感恩^^"
