Answer to Question 1

C
Repeatedly asking Why? about everything is typical of curious people. Scientists share the value of curiosity.

Answer to Question 2

B
An appreciation for classical music, crusading for gay rights, and sympathy for people who live in poverty are not common in American culture. People who value these things have usually consciously chosen to value them and are aware that others often do not share these values. Belief in God is acquired through socialization, is commonly found among Americans, and is often assumed to be true of all Americans. Belief in God is the implicit value.
