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.
