Article 2 Before babies learn to talk and have no idea of dance, they express happiness through simple rhythmic movements or what we later recognize as simple dances. However, humans are not the only species that can dance. There are birds that actually have group dances: circling, bowing, advancing, and retreating in unison. Some species could learn rhythm from birds. For example, bees flirt with dance as part of their mating rituals. Nevertheless, it is only human beings that have adapted dance to therapeutic purposes. Dance as therapy has a long history. Primitive peoples first danced instinctively and, after a while, found that repeated rhythmic movements produced a good feeling. Associations were formed between dance and this positive effect on the mind and emotions. This was the birth of dance therapy. Dance has always seemed to have a magic healing power. It was used for a wide variety of purposes and on different occasions: religious ceremonies, war dances, hunting dances, rain dances, planting and harvesting dances, marriage and funeral dances. Sadly, today many “advanced” industrial societies have lost many original functions of dance. Purposeful dances have been replaced, for example, with rave dancing which involves shaking your body at a nightclub. Even so, in these cases, however, the ritualistic and therapeutic effect of dance can still be seen: the low lights, loud insistent rhythms, and group activity, often building up into a kind of mass hysteria or ecstasy. But, the “primitive” use of dance as therapy has recently seen a huge revival. Never before has there been such interest in courses offering dance therapy. There are nearly two million websites for dance therapy on the Internet, and dance therapy groups around the world combine pleasure with health and well-being. Dance therapy nowadays, in fact, is taken very seriously by both alternative and conventional medical practitioners. It would seem that the “dance of life” continues to move us all.

思路引導 VIP
請試著觀察文章第二段關於原始人類(Primitive peoples)的描述:當他們一開始「本能地」跳舞後,隨之而來的哪一種「心理上的發現」,讓這項活動不再只是單純的律動,進而具備了『治療』的雛形?

舞蹈治療的起源與因果關係
這題的觀念在於理解**「舞蹈治療」如何從本能轉化為具備功能性的行為**。文章第二段明確指出,原始人類起初是基於本能跳舞,但在過程中發現「重複性的節奏動作(repeated rhythmic movements)」能產生「良好的感覺(good feeling)」。當這種動作與情緒上的正面影響建立起連結時,才真正促成了舞蹈治療的誕生。因此,選項 (B) 正確地捕捉到了這個從「行為」到「心理回饋」的因果過程。
