Writing & Language

[1]The song opens with three drummers tapping their panderos. [2]Two smaller hand drums—the segundo and the requinto—weave in and out of that beat. [3]Each pandero adds a layer to the complex, syncopated rhythm I immediately recognize as that of plena music. [4]A maraca and an accordion chime in and are soon joined by the ratchet-like scrape of the güiro. [5]Next, the singers pipe up, one calling and two others responding in a playful chant. [6]As the music builds to a crescendo, I detect a twist on the traditional Puerto Rican folk style: a trombone bursts in and then a clarinet. [7]They add an element of big band jazz. [8]Underneath the fused musical styles, though, the classic plena rhythm, propelled by the panderos, beats on.

The writer wants to add the following sentence to the paragraph.

The largest of the panderos—a hand drum called the seguidor—provides the pulse of the music.

To make the paragraph most logical, the sentence should be placed _________

A.before sentence 1.
B.after sentence 1.
C.after sentence 3.
D.after sentence 8.

答案和解析

答案:B

解析:

Choice B is the best answer because it results in the most logical sequence. It makes sense to introduce the three drummers first and then include the detail about the largest of three drums between the introduction and the details provided about the other two, smaller drums.
