The argument for this ___17___ goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world — even the seasonal changes — as ___18___, and they ___19___ through various means to control these unknown and feared powers. Those ___20___ which appeared to bring the desired results were then retained and repeated ___21___ they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventually stories arose which explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some rituals were ___22___, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and provided material for art and drama. Those who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites ___23___ the seed of theater because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used. ___24___, a suitable ___25___ had to be provided for performances and when the entire community did not participate, a clear ___26___ was usually made between the “acting area” and the “auditorium”. In addition, there were performers, and, since considerable importance was attached to ___27___ mistakes in the enactment of rites, religious leaders ___28___ assumed that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often ___29___ other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and mimed the desired effect — success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sun — as an ___30___ might. Eventually such ___31___ representations were separated from religious activities. Another theory ___32___ the theater’s origin from the human interest in storytelling. According to this view, tales (about the hunt, war, or other feats) are gradually ___33___, at first through the use of impersonation, action, and dialogue by a narrator and then through the ___34___ of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related ___35___ traces theater to those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic or that are imitations of animal movements and sounds. 16.
