Hint : “No more related … than” tells you that the first missing term is being directly compared to the “representations” that the second missing term describes.

Correct Answer: B

Here's Why: The terms in choice (B) logically complete the sentence’s comparison between ethnic and cultural “generalizations” and certain “representations of constellations.” “Stereotypes” are oversimplified generalizations that do not necessarily describe what a particular person is actually like—just as “pictorial,” or picture-based, representations of constellations cannot accurately describe a star’s “actual nature.”
Difficulty: Medium
Question Type: Sentence Completions
