问题 Kept(i)______by cloying commercial radio and clueless record executives, the American popular music scene has frequently depended on cities at the edges of the cultural map to provide a much-needed shot of(ii)______. The momentary (iii)______what the next big thing is seems to come out of nowhere—as if someone blows a whistle only those in the know can hear, and suddenly record executives and journalists are crawling all over what had previously been an obscure locale.

选项

答案A,D,G

解析 The second sentence provides a clue for Blank(iii): the whistle metaphor and the talk about record executives and journalists "crawling all over" a location bring up the image of a race that involves a large number of people; this, and the fact that all these people congregate in one place, point to "consensus about" as the right answer choice for Blank(iii). The search for "the next big thing" suggests that the American popular music scene is looking for something new; this points to "originality" as the correct answer for Blank(ii). Finally, someone who needs a "shot of originality" is unwilling or unable to let go of the past; therefore, "hidebound" is the correct answer choice for Blank(i).
Thus, the correct answer choices are hidebound(Choice A), originality(Choice D)and consensus about(Choice G).
