- Mami agrees that the money has to be spent on important and special things, but she doesn't believe that giving someone a gift is important.

The phrase is from Keats's famous Ode on a Grecian Urn. Exact lines are:
<em>Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd,
</em>
<em>Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone</em>
The author tells the pipes do not play to his or physical ear, but to the metaphorical ear or in his word of his "spirit". This spiritual ear is "more endear’d," or cherished in other words. The author asks the pipes to play "ditties of no tone,". It is songs without any note or sound and that songs do not exist in the real world.

(D) The average productivity of the workers in the country has not risen.
Explanation:
The passage suggests the cause of workers' wages remaining low in companies which have increased their productivity is because it is influenced by average productivity in the country's economy. This is suggested within parentheses.
The author does not explain it any further that how it is influenced by country's average productivity. The reader can infer that it is because, when other companies in the country have not increased their productivity the competition for hiring better skilled workers remains easy, as a result even the high producing companies don't need to increase the wages significantly.
Options A, B and C are irrelevant to workers' low wages (in companies with increased productivity).
Option E is one of the factors, but the main factor has already been suggested by the author within parentheses right after the sentence (about low wages in companies with increased productivity).
