In modern society, an increasing number of younger children are studying art, music and some other kinds of extra subjects in their part-time according to the demands of their parents. However, from my viewpoint, it might not be a wise decision.
Admittedly, learning something about art and music might be good to widen one's sight. It could also provide some opportunities to cultivate the ability to discover and appreciate the beauty. However, merits and demerits always come together, and I believe that the disadvantages might outweigh.
First, it is generally acknowledged that children nowadays are suffering from bigger pressure from the media, society, and even the family than several years ago. Their parents always want them to have a good performance in their everyday study in the school. Moreover, the table of the classes might include so many important subjects such as math, language science, history and so on. According to the recent survey, the majority of the nowadays children are spending more than 4 hours in finishing the homework from the school. In this case, the extra assignments on art and music might burden them and it might result in an unhappy childhood and even some psychological problems. Hence, parents might pay more attention to the development of children, understand and manager the time for their children properly.
In addition, children should learn something following their interests rather than their parents' words. Though the parents love and expect to children is understandable, a child should have the right as an individual to decide what he prefers to learn. As the old saying goes that interests are the best teachers. Many famous and successful people could be illustrated as good examples, for example Beethoven, Newton and Darwin. Because of their strong will to learn something in the particular fields, they might be motivated and stimulated in their study and life. Only with the enthusiasm and passion, the children could be the one who search for fun in the study and finally make some achievements. On the other hand, if one is required to learn the art or music, one might soon lose interests in it and be constrained to keep on studying. I believe, it is not the expected result and purpose of parents.
In sum, I am in agreement with the idea that parents should let the children to develop their own interests and hobbies after school and avoid adding extra pressure to the young.

The speaker in the lecture holds the view, appearing in contradiction to what the passage has maintained, that the hydrogen-based fuel-cell engine could not be an alternative choice to power the car.
Though the internal-combustion engine suffers from several problems such as the using up the finite resource and polluting the environment, the fuel-cell engine might not be available.
First, the speaker claims that the hydrogen which is supposed to fuel the engine is not so practical for the reason that it could not be directly used unless it is put in some extreme environment.
The hydrogen should be preserved in a pure liquid state which is a highly artificial substance.
Moreover, the temperature should be kept very low to make it very cold.
Hence, the idea that hydrogen is a kind of optimal and functional resource is unwarranted and inconvincible.
In addition, it is also argued in the lecture that in the process of producing hydrogen, there exists much pollution.
And some core, petroleum might be burned to provide the energy to make some hydrogen which might question the statement that hydrogen-based fuel cells are environment-friendly with no pollution.
Contrary to the argument in the passage, the speaker points out that the expenditure on the fuel-cells could be great.
The cost of platinum which is the essential and indispensable component of the fuel engine is very expensive which makes it not economically to use the new resource.
