I have looked this question up. It is about vocabulary. We should choose the best meaning for "superficial". The complete question is the following:

His neighbor's "superficial" remarks trivialized their argument over the line separating their properties and infuriated Winston.

A. enraged

B. insulting

C. petty

D. misleading

Answer:

The best option for the meaning of "superficial" as used in the sentence is:

C. petty

Explanation:

If we qualify something as being superficial, we mean it lacks depth. Thus, a superficial remark is a shallow, unimportant statement. In that sense, we can practically say that "superficial" and "petty" have the same meaning. "Petty" refers to something small, unimportant, insignificant. In the sentence we are analyzing here, someone's silly, unimportant remarks made someone else angry because they (the remarks) made the argument seem trivial.

Is it necessary to have lived a certain number of years to be considered mature?

No its not.

Maturity is getting a good understanding of the rules of the game and then being able to decide whether to play by them, adjust them, or create your own completely.

However to understand the game, you have to play. But because of the constraints set by society, our understanding of the game is often limited by insufficient experience. For example, Age and Money. I.e you must be a certain age to marry, work, drive, have kids. You must have a certain amount to money to have access to certain places. This creates the correlation between Age and maturity, and Age, Maturity and money.

In this Information age though, A lack of maturity can be defined as a lack of a vivid imagination and curiosity. Because information is every where.

Answer:

I need more information to even know where to get started with this. What kind of art? Painting? Sculpture? Writing? Spoken word poetry? This is a very broad "thesis", and unfortunately I'm pretty sure it doesn't qualify as a thesis at all.
