Answer 1

答案：1．D;2．D;3．A;4．A;5．C;
解析：

(1)	是非題。要找出錯(cuò)誤的選項(xiàng)，文中提到的Ballet Rambert是一個(gè)舞蹈團(tuán)名而不是人名。A、B、C項(xiàng)可在文中第一段找到。
(2)	語意題。在第一段中，new talent 指的是音樂家、設(shè)計(jì)家，以及舞蹈家。A、C項(xiàng)分別指的是新的方向和節(jié)目，不是指的人；B項(xiàng)雖然指的人，但導(dǎo)演不包括在內(nèi)。
(3)	是非題。要找出錯(cuò)誤的選項(xiàng)，第一段中說，還是有一些該舞蹈團(tuán)以前的舞迷不太喜歡這種改變。B、C項(xiàng)也可在短文的第一段找到；D項(xiàng)可在短文的最后一段找到。
(4)	細(xì)節(jié)題。第一句話就說，Ballet Rambert使現(xiàn)代舞變得流行起來。文中Ballet Rambert是英國(guó)最老的舞蹈團(tuán)，所以B和C項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的；D項(xiàng)沒有提到。
(5)	主旨題。主要內(nèi)容在短文前已做介紹。錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)說明：A項(xiàng)本文不是介紹現(xiàn)代舞為什么受歡迎的；B項(xiàng)本文沒有介紹訓(xùn)練現(xiàn)代舞蹈家的方法；D項(xiàng)本文談的不是現(xiàn)代舞的發(fā)展，而是Ballet Rambert這個(gè)舞蹈團(tuán)的發(fā)展。
