【解析】

試題分析：音樂以多種形式出現(xiàn)，大部分的國家有它們自己的風(fēng)格。爵士是美國對流行音樂的貢獻(xiàn)。在19世紀(jì)20年代就像代表著美國。并且至今還是如此。

【1】its 句意：在JAZZ（爵士）誕生的世紀(jì)之交，美國并沒有它自己突出的音樂。own自己的，前面通常用形容詞性的物主代詞，此處指JAZZ，故填its 。

【2】to be heard 句意：它在19世紀(jì)受到關(guān)注。begin to do sth.開始做某事，句子的主句和do之間是一種被動關(guān)系，“被聽見”，所以這里用動詞不定式的一般式的被動式，故填to be heard。

【3】which 句意：與跟正式的歐洲傳統(tǒng)的古典音樂不同的是，爵士是自發(fā)的和自由的。此處classical music做先行詞，指物，后面是一個(gè)非限制性定語從句，故填which。

【4】expressing 句意：它涌動著能量，表達(dá)著人們的情緒，興趣，情感等。此處是現(xiàn)在分詞表示伴隨狀態(tài)，故填expressing。

【5】as 句意：音樂的起源就如它本身這般令人感興趣。as---as---,---和---一樣，故填as。

【6】are called 句意：正如今天它們被稱作的。此處是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài)的被動語態(tài)，故填are called。

【7】a 句意：在新奧爾良州，一個(gè)樂隊(duì)經(jīng)常跟隨著這些列隊(duì)。根據(jù)句意可知填a。

【8】to on the way to---，在去---的路上。故填to。

【9】Death 句意：死忙帶走了他們一個(gè)伙伴。此處用名詞作主語，故填Death （大寫開頭）。

【10】but 句意：死忙帶走了他們一個(gè)伙伴，但是活著的人為活著而高興。此處表示轉(zhuǎn)折，故填but。

【知識歸納】

1.關(guān)于way的詞組

on the way to---，在去---的路上；in the way擋路；in this way用這種方法；in no way決不；give way to給---讓路；No way!沒門；the way to do sth./the way of doing sth.做某事的方法

2.人人都不想接觸的詞“die”

（1）die死（動詞）；dead死的（形容詞）；death死（名詞）；dying快要死的。

（2）die of死于---（外因）；die from死于---（內(nèi)因）；die out滅絕；die down減弱， 逐漸平息；die away（尤指聲音、光、風(fēng)） 逐漸消失，停止。
