Rests represent periods of silence in a measure.
(休止意味著在一小節中的一段時間保持靜音)
Each type of rest shares a duration with a certain type of note.
(不同的休止方式對應不同的休止符)
While the note would make a sound, the rest is silent.
(但音符發聲,休止符不發聲)
To demonstrate this, let's fill a measure of 4/4 time with quarter notes.
(演示一下,把一個四四拍的小節填滿四分音符)
Next, we will replace the second quarter note with a quarter rest.
(然後,第二拍用一個四分休止符代替四分音符)
Next, let's discuss the other types of rests.
(接下來,我們看一下剩餘的幾種休止符)
A whole rest occupies the same amount of time as a whole note.
(全休止符所代表的時值和一個全音符的時值相等)
It is drawn as a box descending from the fourth staff line.
(它的形狀是在五線譜第四線向下伸出的一個小方塊)
A half rest occupies the same amount of time as a half note.
(二分休止符所代表的時值和一個二分音符的時值相等)
It is drawn as a box ascending from the middle staff line.
(它的形狀是在五線譜中間線向上伸出的一個小方塊)
Although rarer, rests can have three or more flags.
(雖然不常用,但休止符也可以有三條甚至更多符尾)
