Thanks for your corrections for last home work.
Here is the second home work :)
Q: What do you think influences a young person’s
taste in music?
I think the mass media severely affects the taste in music of a young person
for taste in music. Because young people just follow the trend of music before
having their own taste of culture. And the mass media lead the trend. So young
people delude themselves that what a type of music is heard numerous times
through the mass media is their taste in music.
Q: How importance is it for a culture to have musical traditions?
I believe traditional music is very important. Because keeping musical traditions is inherit the spirit of ours. For example, there is Korean traditional music, named Nong-Ak performed by farmers. Korean plays the music when they work at a farm to improve the efficiency, spice up and make team work. Just knowing traditional music reminds us our root and sprit from the past. Also there is an idiom that the new is from the past. We can create new music or art based on traditional music. Musical traditions can affects present culture in many ways.
Q: Why Do you think countries have national anthems or songs?
National flags and anthems are symbols of countries. In the past, many countries were monarchy. At the time countries have anthems in order to show royalty to the king, for example save the queen (king) of Britain. Now it wishes freedom and prosperity. When a Korean athlete gets a medal in the Olympic Games, we can listen Korean anthem. At that time we feel more united and patriotism. Like that, national anthems make people love their own countries.
Q: Is this different from the kind of achievement that made people famous in the past? In what way?
When I was a child, I learned about the great mans of history at school. Many of them are war heroes because wars are the most important to survive with their family keeping their territory. So the history remembers their great achievement with their brave, strategy, wisdom and physical strength. But today, when athletes get excellent score in big games, they become famous in terms of physical strength.
Q: How do you think people will become famous in the future?
Now celebrities get fame by mass media for instance celebrities expose to public via TV shows, commercials, movies and news. The internet is starting to use for that people become famous. I think, it will widely use to get publicity. For example, Facebook and twitter. People who want to get fame up load their private lives or opinions about social issues, and then many people read or see their posts, pictures or mentions. After that they will become famous.
Thank you :)
I have a question. What word do you use about king instead of loyalty? Allegiance?
You can show 'loyalty'. 'Alligiance' also works too.
'dedication', 'obligation', 'devotion' are all kind of the same idea, with variances in meaning.
'Dedication' is the sheer act of sticking to someone or something, so to speak. You can be dedicated to a project, and work very hard to finish it on time.
'Obligation' is when you do something to pay something back to someone. By signing a lease, it's your obligation to pay your landlord every month.
'Devotion' is like dedication, only with a more spiritual ring to it; it's usually tied with religion. People wear wedding rings to show their devotion to one another.

When a Korean athlete gets a medal in the Olympic Games, we can listen to the Korean anthem. At that time we feel more united and patriotic.

While the king is royalty, you cannot show the king royalty. Loyalty might have been what you were looking for, as it makes more sense.
