Question 10

Chloe was listening to a classical concert featuring a violin soloist. She enjoyed the performance so much that she spent her entire weekend practicing her own violin. Chloe's mother has always been a passionate cellist, and Chloe has always received outstanding feedback from her music instructors regarding her natural sense of pitch and rhythm.

Chloe's classmate, Marcus, does not enjoy playing classical musical instruments and never has. He told Chloe that he much preferred to program electronic synth beats on his laptop. Marcus's father enjoys listening to classical music and sequencing software synthesizers. When he was younger, Marcus's primary school strongly encouraged him to learn the recorder and provided him with extra one-to-one tutoring, but he showed little interest.

You must make reference to the context in your answer.
