[amp_mcq option1=”Only conclusion I follows” option2=”Only conclusion II follows” option3=”Either I or II follows” option4=”Neither I nor II follows E. Both I and II follow” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is: Only conclusion II follows.<\/p>\n

The statement “I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance” does not necessarily mean that the writer’s knowledge is very poor. It could simply mean that the writer is aware of the vast amount of knowledge that exists in the world and that they do not know everything.<\/p>\n

The second conclusion, “The world of knowledge is too vast to be explored by a single person,” is a logical consequence of the statement. If the writer knows nothing except the fact of their ignorance, then it follows that there is a lot of knowledge that they do not know. And if there is a lot of knowledge that they do not know, then it follows that the world of knowledge is too vast to be explored by a single person.<\/p>\n

The first conclusion, “Writer’s knowledge is very poor,” is not a logical consequence of the statement. The statement does not say anything about the writer’s knowledge, only that they know nothing except the fact of their ignorance. It is possible for someone to know a lot of things and still be aware of the vast amount of knowledge that exists in the world.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the correct answer is: Only conclusion II follows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
