Question

Select the correct conclusion based on the meaning of the highlighted word.
Statement: His overnight success has taught me that you should never judge a book by its cover.
Conclusion:
I. One should beware of false appearances.
II. We must not underestimate anyone based on their looks.

A.

Only conclusion II is correct

B.

Both conclusion I and II are correct

C.

Only conclusion I is correct

D.

Neither conclusion I nor II is correct

Correct option is A

The correct answer is option (a).
The idiom “never judge a book by its cover” means not to judge someone or something purely by appearance. It especially applies in situations where a person initially seems unimpressive but turns out to be highly capable, as in the case of "his overnight success."
Other options are incorrect because:
· Conclusion I talks about false appearances in a suspicious sense ("beware"), which has a negative connotation of distrust.
· (Conclusion I में ‘beware’ शब्द नकारात्मक आशय देता है, जो कहावत के आशय से मेल नहीं खाता। यह संदेह को दर्शाता है।)
· Conclusion II is accurate, as it mirrors the core lesson of the idiom—don’t underestimate others based on their appearance.
· (Conclusion II कहावत के सही अर्थ को दर्शाता है कि हमें किसी को उनके लुक्स के आधार पर नहीं आंकना चाहिए।)
