Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. “Motive” is an incongruity, puzzle, or surprise in the primary sources or data; and/or hole, limitation, or disagreement in the secondary literature that leaves space for the writer's new claim. With primary sources, a writer forms an argument after finding something surprising or promising about the data.

2. By following the chords, and only using the notes within each chord as it plays, you've got an instant set of notes from which to devise a melody.

3. The image below shows a bar and the amount of beats in a bar. The note B is a crotchet and so is the one alongside it as they are the same (if it's the wrong way round it really doesn't matter) a crotchet is worth 1 beat but in the bar it shows 2 which means they are both worth total 2 beats . The note C is a semibreve and it is worth 4 beats.
