Question

Art and mathematics. For many, this would appear to be synonymous with chalk and cheese.
One is the domain of emotional expression, passion and aesthetics. The other, a world of
steely logic, precision and truth. And yet scratch the surface of these stereotypes and one
discovers that the two worlds have much more in common than one might expect.
Any creative artist will tell you that the emotional resonance of a piece emerges out of the
construction of the work and is rarely an ingredient fed in at the beginning of a composition.
The composer Philip Glass admits that he never deliberately programs any emotional
content in his work. He believes it's generated spontaneously as a result of all the
processes that he employs. “I find that the music almost always has some emotional quality
in it; it seems independent of my intentions.” The structure and internal logic of a piece is
what drives its composition.
Perhaps more surprising is the role that emotions and passion play in the mathematics that
we humans create. Mathematics is far from being just a list of all the true statements we
can discover about number. Mathematicians are storytellers. Our characters are numbers
and geometries. Our narratives are the proofs we create about these characters.
Esse fragmento de um texto estabelece uma relação de comparação entre arte e matemá
tica. Considerando suas informações, infere-se que:
A) a matemática supera o domínio artístico ao aliar a narrativa à precisão lógica.
B) as duas áreas do conhecimento apresentam semelhanças, apesar das disparidades.
C) as duas áreas são vistas de maneira estereotipada pelo público leigo.
D) o campo das artes não abriga a estrutura lógica apenas no início da composição.
E) os dois domínios abrigam, predominantemente, as estruturas lógicas da narrativa.​

Answer 1

Resposta:

alternativa B

Explicação:

O texto estabelece seu objetivo no trecho ''And yet scratch the surface of these stereotypes and one  discovers that the two worlds have much more in common than one might expect.'' . Assim, a arte e a matemática são comparadas, sem que em nenhum momento haja sobreposição de uma em detrimento da outra.
