Select one:

a. Life imitating art

b. The connection between music, poetry, and prose

c. Copyright infringement

d. Collaboration between corporations and artists

Answer 1

The correct answer is letter "A": Life imitating art

Step-by-step explanation:

Music has been the inspiration of many well-known pioneers around the world. Steve Jobs (1955-2011) is not any different in this matter, being influenced by the Beatles to create portable music players that are massively spread until today. We have the case of John Lennon (1940-1980) as well inspired by music to make more music. In his case, the influence came from the post-world war Beat Generation that manifested ideas on spiritualism, experimentation with drugs, and sexual exploration.

In that sense, Both Steve Jobs' and John Lennon's cases are a clear example of life imitating art.
