What an educated man is able to see in the world?

The correct answer is C. The question asks about perception, not physical sight. An educated mind sees more beauty, more variety and a wider scope for sympathy and understanding than an uneducated one, and option C captures exactly that.

• A is wrong. Mountains, hills and bushes are visible to everyone, educated or not. Education changes how a person responds to a landscape, not what the eye can register.
• B is wrong. Roads, meadows and inns are ordinary features of daily life. Nothing in them marks an educated viewer apart.
• D is wrong for the same reason as A. Rivers, lakes and rocks are plain physical objects that any observer can see.

The core concept is that education widens the inner horizon: it deepens appreciation, tolerance and empathy. This links directly to the GS-IV idea that education should build sensitivity and humane understanding, and it is a useful line for essay and ethics answers on the purpose of education.

Trap: aspirants pick A or D because they look like concrete, 'geographical' facts. In reading-comprehension questions, always ask whether the option describes a capacity of mind or merely an object in the scene.
