Your reaction.CBritish parents encourage their children to play musical instruments as part of a family tradition and not to raise their social status as Americans do, research says.Dr. Aaron Reeves of the University of Oxford found

24、that UK parents did not see musical achievement by their children as character building or useful in getting university places or jobs. Instead, it was usually only those parents who played instruments that encouraged their children to follow suit.This contrasted with research carried out by other a

25、cademics in America, he said. “Middle-class parents in the US appear to associate cultural practice with other benefits, such as developing specific characteristics and paving the way for educational success. Middle-class families are often marked by a pattern of concerted cultivation, where parents

26、 organize music-centred activities for their children, often in addition to school-based musical practice.”Researchers had owed this to “parental anxiety over the declining fortunes of educated Americans. These parents have become increasingly worried about providing their children with skills and a

27、bilities enabling them to stand out from their competitors in the job market.”By contrast, for British respondents, no such connection was made between what is considered as an overbearing parenting style and future educational or career possibilities. The parents interviewed here did not connect mu

28、sic with usefulness but rather they focused on the value of music as a family tradition and, to a lesser extent, as something valuable in its own right.One Scottish parent, a chemist by profession, said during the interviews, “Weve got two learning musical instruments. If we think its maybe worthwhi

29、le we try and encourage them, but we wouldnt force them.” A housewife said, “My sons just turned five and I want him to do the guitar because his uncle does it, but its up to him.”In some UK families, said Dr. Reeves, music was even “believed to be an obstacle to educational success, or at least sec

30、ondary to it.”28. What do British parents think of music learning?A. Useful for job application.B. Helpful for character building.C. Beneficial to further education.D. Worthwhile as a family tradition.29. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Cultural practice.B. Educationa

33、, what might you say? The companys iPhone business has been stricken because of an economic slowdown and a maturing smartphone market. Its clear Apple needs to adapt to face new realities.Some might say the obvious answer is to lower the prices on the iPhone. Others want it to expand its services be

34、yond Apple devices to Android and Windows.But whats more likely to happen is this: iPhones will get even more expensive. The evidence for this is already starting to appear. A new report from The Wall Street Journal suggests Apple is going to give its entire 2020 iPhone line OLED screens(有机发光二极管屏幕)t

35、he same very expensive tech currently only found in the iPhone X and XS.This may seem surprising, but its all of a piece with Apples strategy: Make high profit, desirable tech, and get the rewards of creating a closed ecosystem. So Apple wants to focus on the high-end in order to satisfy choosy cust

36、omers, while also recognizing that in a mature market, people will replace smartphones less often. This means high-profit devices will be key to maintaining a healthy profit, which helps explain the shift to an all-OLED lineup. That shift also allows for more basic design updates, like curved screen

37、s or edges. It is important to note, too, that even though iPhone sales are down, sales for the Apple Watch and iPad are up. For the future, Apple will continue to put more emphasis on those categories. And looking even further out, it is almost certain that Apple will enter new sectors. Apple has m

38、ade some mistake policies in recent years. But the company is not down and out. Far from it: By focusing on high-end, high-profit tech, plus services, all while keeping an eye to the future, Apple will likely keep its dominant position for many years to come.32.
