Is there likely to be a shift in focus and, if so, what direction will it take? C I would respond to the latter question on a positive note The music industry is one of the major generators of income in Britain and musical skill and talent will continue to be important in preparing individuals to work in a variety of professions, in particular those related to the media D This represents a fundamental change from traditional practice and it will be accompanied by the need to respond to demands for public accountability Viewed positively, this should provide an opportunity for all those involved in music education to demonstrate the high quality of music tuition available E There seems little doubt that the widening access to music is likely to continue, fulfilling as it does so many human needs On a national level, no major state occasion is without music For individuals, it provides opportunities for numerous activities, formal and informal F One of the best recognized functions is that of providing an outlet for emotional expression Its influence on our moods can be therapeutic It provides a means of communicating which goes beyond words and provides us with shared unspoken understandings G Developing in parallel with this trend is a likely increase in the number of people, across the whole age range, who wish to actively participate in music making Such activities are likely to be community based and will reflect the musical traditions of that community whatever they may be H While these results are still to be successfully replicated, other data from Europe has indicated that an increase in group music lessons can have positive effects on social relationships in school and on concentration in young children and those with behavioral difficulties Music-The Challenge Ahead Technological advances continue to transform our lives at work, at home and in our leisure activities Susan Hallam discusses their impact on music in Britain In the latter part of the 20th century, we saw a rapid increase in the opportunities available for listening to music through radio, TV, records, tapes, CDs, videos and a rapidly developing range of multi-media techniques Along with this, there has been a decline in the performance of, live music and in the full-time employment opportunities for professional musicians (0) …………………………………………………………………………………………… Indeed, a society without music is surely unthinkable and it seems that the issue is not whether there will be music in the 21 st century but what the nature of that music will be; and also whether there will be continued perceived need for people to learn to play musical instruments (1) …………………………………………………………………………………………… In addition to its vocational significance, there is a growing body of evidence that playing an instrument may be beneficial to the development of skills at an earlier stage Research in the USA has suggested that listening to or actively making music has a direct positive effect on spatial reasoning, one aspect of the measurement of intelligence (2) …………………………………………………………………………………………… Taking the idea behind such findings one step further, current research is investigating to what extent playing an instrument may even encourage the development of transferable skills For instance, the need to practice regularly may assist in the acquisition of good study habits and focused concentration, playing in concerts may encourage habits of punctuality and good organization (3) …………………………………………………………………………………………… While there are many possible scenarios, I believe that two possibilities are likely Firstly, the kinds of music to which people will listen will become more diverse New genres will develop which will integrate different styles Secondly, there will be an increase in the use of technology to compose and perform music This will widen access to composition as there will be less reliance on technical skills but at the same time, it is likely to further reduce the need for live performance and musicians whose role is solely related to it (4) …………………………………………………………………………………………… If this vision of the future is to be realized, what does the music profession need to in preparation? The focus of instrumental tuition will need to change Ways will need to be found to enable more people to learn to play a range of instruments, throughout their life span (5) …………………………………………………………………………………………… Crucial to the success of the process will be the training of musicians They will need to be able to able to motivate, inspire and teach learners of all ages, develop skills for working with and diverse groups and acquire the communication, social, entrepreneurial and management skills necessary for community work (6) …………………………………………………………………………………………… Finally, we need to strive towards raising the profile of music itself Music plays a crucial role in our lives but all too often it is taken for granted Those involved in the music profession at all levels need to work actively together to ensure that this changes Your answer (0) E … … … … … Part The table below shows the student expenditure over a five-year period in Riverland Complete the report describing the information.(1 m) Percentage of total expenditure Items 2000 2005 Accommodation 25 20 Food, household goods 20 17 Essential travel Non-essential travel Course expenditure 10 Entertainment 26 31 Others* 12 16 * include non-essential consumer items growth ; 17%; 3% ; table ; Overall ; make up accommodation ; essential items ; course expenditure ; fall The (1) … shows the changes which took place in student spending in Riverland over the five year period from 2000 to 2005 Students spent 5% less on (2)… , which fell from 25% to 20% of total expenditure, and there was a (3)… decrease in spending on food and household goods, which fell from 20% to (4)… At the same time, (5)… went down by 3%, from 10% to 7% On the other hand, there was a 5% (6)… in spending on entertainment, which stood at 26% of total expenditure in 2000 but rose to 31% in 2005 Spending on essential travel went up by 3% while non-essential travel underwent a 1%(7)… Spending on all the other items grew by 4% to (8)….16% of total expenditure (9)…., with the exception of expenditure on travel, the most significant general change was a shift from spending on (10)… to spending on non-essential items Your answer ……………… ……………… ……………….4 ……………….5 …………… ……………… ……………… ……………….9 ………………10 …………… Part Fill in each blank with one suitable word to complete this passage The first gap has been done for you as an example.(2 ms) LOOKING FOR A JOB I finished university six month (0) _ago , I’ve got a degree in business administration I enjoyed the course very much (01) _ I realize I should have studied a lot harder!
