You go to System Preferences, then Keyboard, and then click on the Keyboard tab at the top. It's all due to a setting in System Preferences. Now it can work that way but it can also work the opposite way.
If that were true for the top row of keys the not holding down the fn key will always give you F1 and holding down the fn key would give you lower screen brightness. Holding it down will give you upper case letters. So with the Shift key not holding it down will always give you lower case letters. However it can be confusing because the keys can work in the opposite way for different people. You switch between the two of them using a key, not the shift key, but the fn key which is usually at the bottom left corner of the keyboard, though not always. It can do function keys like F1 or it can do Special Features like screen brightness. Just like that the top row has two different things that it does. You hold the Shift key down to go from lower case to upper case. Kind of like with the regular letter keys there's lower case and upper case letters. Well basically the top row of keys has two different modes. Another problem people have is sometimes they want to use the special functions at the top of the keyboard, like pausing music, changing screen brightness and such, and when they try to use those keys they just don't do anything. In fact they do completely different things. But when they press those keys on the keyboard they don't work for that app. One is that they want to use keyboard shortcuts in an app that show F1, F2, F3, etc., as the shortcut.
