Read the passage to answer questions 5-6


The vast multitude of stars are wandering about in space. A few form
groups which journey in company, but the majority 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 a million miles from its nearest neighbor, whence it is easy to
understand why a ship seldom finds another within hailing distance.

5. Which of the following is incorrect according to the passage?

A. Most of the stars travel in isolation


B. The universe is very large
C. A star very frequently comes near to another one
D. A star very rarely comes near to another one
E. Some stars travel in groups

6. In the passage the “ship” symbolizes:

A. space
B. traveler
C. universe
D. ocean
E. star
