Answer to Question 1

 Beats/pulses are apparent (metered) and (B) grouped into a triple meter, a meter with a number of beats divisible by 3 (1 2 3, 1 2 3, etc.).
 With each phrase being 4 bars long, illustrating the most common European musical phrase length
4. Why do Oifn Pripetshik, Joy to the World and A Mighty Fortress sound like European compositions?
 All three songs are based on the common European major/minor scales and related harmonies.
 All three songs are in a common duple/triple meter, grouped into four-bar phrases.

Answer to Question 2

 Metered music has an obvious beat or pulse organized in a repeating pattern.
 Unmetered music lacks an even pulse or repeating pattern of beats.
 An ostinato is a musical line that repeats throughout the piece.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
