Musicologist Dr. Kenji Sato investigated the impact of early radio broadcasts on regional folk music (*min'yo*) in Japan during the 1920s. Some historians argue that the rise of national broadcasting led to the homogenization of Japanese musical culture, erasing local variations. Sato, however, contends that radio broadcasts actually revitalized distinct regional traditions by elevating the prestige of local performers and encouraging young musicians in remote provinces to preserve their unique musical heritages. Which choice, if true, would most directly support Sato's contention?

  1. A
    The total number of households owning radio receivers in Japan increased from a few thousand in 1925 to over one hundred thousand by the end of the decade.
  2. B
    Several regional *min'yo* performers who were featured on national broadcasts reported that their radio performances required them to simplify their traditional vocal techniques to suit the limitations of early microphones.
  3. A study of regional music archives from the late 1920s showed a significant increase in the number of young apprentices in remote provinces studying under local *min'yo* masters who had recently performed on national radio broadcasts.Cevap
  4. D
    Historians have concluded that early radio broadcasts were the primary factor in creating a single, unified national identity among the diverse populations of rural and urban Japan.

Cevap

The correct answer is the finding that regional music archives from the late 1920s showed an increase in young apprentices studying under local folk music masters who had performed on national radio.
The correct answer provides evidence that directly links radio broadcasts to the preservation of local folk music. By showing that more young apprentices began studying under local master performers after those performers were featured on national radio, this finding supports the claim that radio broadcasts elevated the prestige of regional artists and motivated the younger generation to maintain their provincial musical heritage.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the main claim or contention made by the researcher.
Sato contends that radio broadcasts revitalized distinct regional traditions by elevating performers' prestige and encouraging young musicians in remote areas to preserve their unique heritages.
Understanding the specific hypothesis is necessary to determine what kind of evidence would support it.
2
Evaluate the options to find one that shows a direct link between radio broadcasts, increased prestige, and preservation of local traditions by young musicians.
The data showing an increase in apprentices studying under radio-featured local masters provides direct evidence of both elevated prestige and active preservation efforts by the youth.
Connecting the evidence to the specific components of Sato's claim confirms the validity of the support.
