Change is the principle--and the process--that enables us to move on and upward growth and change, of continuous improvement. To make meaningful progress, we need to consider one other aspect of change as it is used only by human our thought. In the words of Madame, "The voice of thought is so soft that it is easy to forget about it, but it is also so clear that it is impossible to misunderstand it." Just as the education of nerve is most important to the excellent athlete and education of the mind is vital to the scholar, education of the thought is vital to the truly highly effective person. Training and educating the thought, however, requires even greater concentration, more balanced discipline, more consistently honest living. It requires regular feasting on inspiring literature, thinking noble thoughts and, above all, living in harmony with its still small voice. Just as junk food and lack of exercise can ruin an athlete’s condition, those things that are not decent, crude, or unhealthy can lead to an inner darkness and make us wonder "What is right and wrong" In the words of Dag Hammarskjold, You cannot play with the animal in you without becoming wholly animal, play with falsehood without losing your right to truth, play with cruelty without losing your sensitivity of mind. He who wants to keep his garden tidy doesn’t reserve a plot for weeds. Once we are self-aware, we must choose purposes and principles to live by; otherwise the hole will be filled, and we will lose our self-awareness and become like groveling animals that live mainly for survival. And there is no easy way in developing them. The Law of the Harvest governs; we will always reap what we sow--no more, no less. I believe that as we grow and develop, an increasingly educated thought will push us along the path of personal freedom, security, wisdom, and power. Moving upward requires us to learn, commit, and do on increasingly higher planes. To keep progressing, we must learn, commit, and do--learn, commit, and do--and learn, commit, and do again. What is the topic the author is trying to get to in paragraph 1
A. Continuous improvement.
B. Upward growth and change.
Change of thought.
D. The voice of thought.

The visual arts are a class of art forms, including painting, sculpture, photography, and others, that focus on the creation of artworks which are primarily visual in nature. The visual arts are distinguished from the performing arts, language arts, and other such classes of artwork. The definition is not strict, and many artistic disciplines involve aspects of the visual arts as well other types. In Britain until recently the fine arts-painting, sculpture, printmaking, and so on-were seen as distinct from craft disciplines and the various metalworking disciplines. This distinction arose from the Arts and Crafts Movement whose political aim was to value daily art forms as much as high forms. The result of the conflict between the two groups was to politicize the products of what we now know as visual artists. British art schools made a clear distinction between the fine arts (a term that hints at their supposed superiority) and the crafts in such a way that a craftsperson could not be considered a practitioner of high art. Although this is no longer the case, the inequality between the crafts or applied arts and the so-called fine arts still exists in some quarters. A similar stigma exists in the US, where "arts and crafts" has a very particular meaning, referring to the sort of artwork first taught in elementary school and also (later in life) a variety of kitsch, household artwork. Most craftspeople are still seen as practicing something other than "fine art" among the traditional art school set, but, of course, can produce "high art", in any medium. What about the situation in U. S.
A. Most craftspeople are considered working in "fine art".
B. Craftspeople are experiencing almost the same as their British counterparts do.
Craftspeople enjoy a much higher social status than their British counterparts.
D. The distinction between crafts and fine arts is eliminated earlier than in UK.
