W: Today’s Arts Report features Dan Parker of the American Indian Dance Theatre. Mr Parker, I understand your troupe performs traditional music and dance from many different Native American cultures. Can you give us an idea of some of the dances you’ll be doing in your performance tonight?
M: Certainly. We’ll be doing one that’s a war dance. Originally it was a story-telling device to recount battles. Another is the grass dance performed by the Plains Indians, where they actually flatten tall field grass to prepare it for a ceremony.
W: Since your dancers are from many different tribes, how can you be sure the dances are done correctly?
M: Everything we do has been approved by the elders of our tribes. That’s partly because we don’t necessarily know each other’s styles or dances. But it’s also because it’s hard to get complete agreement — even within the same tribe — about exactly how the dance should be done.
W: Anyone who attends one of your performances will notice that your company goes to a lot of trouble to provide detailed explanations of the origin of the dances, the music, the costumes, and so forth. Could you explain to our listeners why you do this?
M: Good question. There are always concerns that traditional dances performed in a theatre are nothing more than a spectacle. Our explanations show that in our cultures dance is custom rather than entertainment. We also want to make it clear to our audience that we are not performing any dances used for holy ceremonies.

C、The elders have more acting experience.
D、The troupe is financed by the elders.
答案
A
解析
对话中男士说Everything we do has been approved by the elders of our tribes,接下来说明了两个原因:we don’t necessarily know each other’s styles or dances,it’s hard to get complete agreement,也就是说为了统一舞蹈标准这些舞蹈表演是受到部落中长者认可的,故答案为A)。
