21、 In a company blog post on Monday, Apple announced that its Apple Music streaming service would give all users access to lossless and spatial audio (空间音频)in June, 2021. Those who have the service will get these features without needing to pay more money.
Lossless audio is probably the, bigger of the two, especially for music fans. Traditionally, turning songs into MP3s or other common audio formats usually reduces sound quality. Not every part of a recording is necessary for basic listenability, so corners are cut to make sure file sizes aren't massive. As the name suggests, lossless audio gives you a version closer to what was heard in the recording studio. Apple's lossless format starts at 16 bit at 44.1 kHz and goes all the way up to24 bit at 192 kHz. You'll be able to choose your preferred quality level in the Apple Music app's settings when this feature rolls out.
Spatial audio is a little more self-explanatory. Artists can make their music sound like it's happening all around the listener, as long as they're using new AirPods or Beats headphones or the most recent versions of iPads, Macs, and iPhones. This is free of Dolby Atmos, a high-tech surround-sound format that you can find everywhere from movie theaters to home audio equipment.
Assuming lossless and spatial audio deliver on those promises, Apple can claim victory over Spotify and Tidal on price alone. The $9.99 monthly fee won't increase, unlike Spotify's upcoming HiFi plan (which doesn't have a confirmed price yet) and Tidal's existing $ 19.99 monthly lossless plan. That's definitely a noteworthy blow in the music streaming war.
【1】What can be learned about Apple's lossless audio?
A.It costs more money.
B.It has been in wide use.
C.It takes no storage space.
D.It offers high quality music.
【2】What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?
A.Types of headphones.
B.Features of Spatial audio.
C.iPhones versions.
D.Audio equipment.
【3】Why does the writer mention Spotify and Tidal?
A.To increase market competition.
B.To stress Apple's advantage.
C.To tell the importance of music.
D.To introduce Apple's new product.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Apple Releases New iPhones
B.Music Platforms Fight Fairly
C.Music Lovers Feed Their Ears
D.Apple Music Offers New Services
22、 Audiences who are present at music festivals often do not think about the work behind the scenes. There are many factors (因素)when organizers want to create a successful festival of any type. They have to make efforts to organize the music festival. They must spend a large amount of money bringing in popular artists, and the event must have excellent advertising. Once a site is chosen, it is often a space that is rented. Organizers must also take parking and crowd control into consideration when large audiences are expected to attend.
As a whole, a successful music festival combines all the necessary parts into a series of events that attract the audience. If any one part of the festival brings in a large number of complaints, it is not successful and the number of audiences will be down both that year and the following year. This is one of the reasons why organizers work hard to make sure every part of a festival functions as flawlessly as possible. They want people to take away great memories so they will attend the festival the next year and continue to do so. Organizers have long recognized this fact and take the time to find out what their audiences want. They recognize changes in audience moods and values. This allows their festivals to continue growing by satisfying their specific audiences.
The growth of many music festivals has caused organizers to seek out more modern musicians. Organizers don’t choose musicians that only perform for small crowds. Musicians, such as electric violinists or saxophone players, are more able to handle larger crowds who require amplified (放大的)music. Their ability to deal with technical aspects of greater sound production makes them popular with organizers. These musicians are also popular with large crowds who appreciate their ability to produce beautiful sound in the musical genre (流派)of the festival.
【1】What does a successful music festival need?
A.Control of the number of audiences.
B.Money to buy a site.
C.Experienced audiences.
D.A great deal of organizers’ effort.
【2】What does the underlined word "flawlessly" in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Perfect. B.Crazy. C.Quick. D.Limitless.
【3】What kind of musicians will be popular with the organizer of a music festival?
A.Those who are members of a band.
B.Those who like performing for small crowds.
C.Those who can play the latest popular music.
D.Those who have the ability to handle larger crowds.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.The Origin of Music Festivals
B.The History of Music Festivals
C.The Organizers of Successful Music Festivals
D.The Factors in Successful Music Festivals
