Passage: The vast multitudes of stars are wandering about in space. A few forms group which journey in company, but the majorities are solitary travelers. And they travel through a universe so spacious that it is an event of almost unimaginable rarity for a star to come anywhere near to another star. For the most part each voyages in splendid isolation, like a ship on an empty ocean. In a scale model in which the stars are ships the average ship will be well over million miles from its nearest neighbour, whence it is easy to understand why a ship seldom finds another within hailing distance.

A. Some stars travel in group

B. Most of the starts travel in isolation

C. The universe in very large

D. A star very rarely comes near to another one

Passage: A serious critic has to comprehend the particular content, unique structure, and special meaning of a work of art. And here she faces a dilemma. The critic must recognize the artistic element of uniqueness that requires subjective reaction; yet she must not be unduly prejudiced by such reactions. Her likes and dislikes are less important than what the work itself communicates, and her preferences may blind her to certain qualities of the work and thereby prevent an adequate understanding of it. Hence, it is necessary that a critic develop a sensibility informed by familiarity with the history of art and aesthetic theory. On the other hand, it is insufficient to treat the artwork solely historically, in relation to a fixed set of ideas or values. 

According to the author, a serious art critic may avoid being prejudiced by her subjective reactions if she? Brings to her observation a knowledge of art history and aesthetic theory

The author implies that it is insufficient to treat a work of art solely historically because? Doing so can blind the critic to some of the artwork's unique qualities

Passage: However, it must be recognized that science has its limitations. Its methods apply only to those things which can be observed, measured, and treated mathematically. It has nothing to do with values save those of truth and accuracy. It has nothing to do with happiness, goodness, beauty, courage, adventure, justice, altruism, friendship, love of family, love of country. Yet all these values enter into a man's conception of what is the good personal life within a good society. It is possible for honest and intelligent men to differ profoundly on the nature of these values and their respective degrees of importance. Hence the contrast between the modern world's command of material things and its tragic failure to organize a harmonious world society.

1. It can be inferred from the passage that the author thinks? A good personal life can be achieved by recognizing the nature of values and their degree of importance

2. According to the author, science is concerned primarily with things that can be? Observed, measured, and treated mathematically
