Read the following passage given below and answer the question that follow.
The other day we heard someone smilingly refer to poets as dreamers. Now, it is not
accurate to refer to poets as dreamers, but it is not discerning to infer, as this person did, that
the dreams of poets have no practical value beyond the realm of literary diversion. The truth is
that poets are just as practical as people who build bridges or look into microscopes; but just as
close to reality and truth. Where they differ from the logician and the scientist is in the temporal
sense alone; they are ahead of their time. Whereas logicians and scientists are abreast of their
time. Dreams are the sunrise streamers heralding a new day of scientific progress, another
forward surge.
