How is a work of art different from the work of a scientist ?
EnglishReading Comprehension
- AA work of art is as permanent as the work of a scientist.
- BThe influence of a work of art increases from age to age unlike the work of a scientist which diminishes in course of time.
- CA work of art has no material value like the work of a scientist.
- DA work of art is an expression of creative power while the work of a scientist is not.
Explanation
The passage's whole contrast is that art's influence 'tends to increase with time' while scientific work is 'superseded' and thus diminishes. Option B states exactly this. (A) claims equal permanence, which the passage denies, and (C) and (D) are unsupported by the text.
