Question

Opera refers to a dramatic art form, originating in Europe, in which the emotional content is conveyed to the audience as much through music, both vocal and instrumental, as it is through the lyrics. By contrast, in musical theater an actor’s dramatic performance is primary, and the music plays a lesser role. The drama in opera is presented using the primary elements of theater such as scenery, costumes, and acting. However, the words of the opera, or libretto, are sung rather than spoken. The singers are accompanied by a musical ensemble ranging from a small instrumental ensemble to a full symphonic orchestra.

It is stated in the reading that —-.
A) acting and costumes are secondary to music in musical theatre
B) many people find musical theatre more captivating than opera
C) music in musical theatre is not as important as it is in opera
D) an opera requires a huge orchestra as well as a large choir
E) opera doesn’t have any properties in common with musical theatre

Pada soal ini kamu diminta menentukan pernyataan yang sesuai dengan isi teks.

Di dalam teks terdapat kalimat "By contrast, in musical theater an actor’s dramatic performance is primary, and the music plays a lesser role", yang artinya "Sebaliknya, dalam teater musikal, penampilan dramatis seorang aktor adalah yang utama, dan musik memainkan peran yang lebih rendah".
