Answer to Question 1

B
Scientists insist that we verify our logical assumptions and deductions via observations of reality. This is known as empiricism.

Answer to Question 2

A
We solve puzzles because we are curious about the solution. Curiosity also involves a desire to know more about things (things that may be puzzling to us at present).
