Correct Option: 1
Further, _______ about (ideas) of different thinkers helps us -> Use of ‘thinkers’ -> Whole sentence related -> Thinkers -> Philosophy!Hence, the first blank = Act/Field related to thinkers = Philosophy => Correct Answer = 1Option 1 is correct because 'philosophy' inherently involves deep questioning and introspection, which naturally leads to 'pondering' about 'ourselves' and enhancing our 'understanding' of life and the world.One-liner meanings:
Option 3: 'Linguistics' studies language scientifically, but doesn't directly engage with personal introspection or broader life contemplations as philosophy does.
Option 4: 'History' examines past events, and while it can provoke deep thinking, it doesn't match the personal and introspective depth described by the sentence as well as 'philosophy' does.
- Philosophy: Study of the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality, and existence.
- Pondering: Thinking about something carefully, especially before making a decision.
- Understanding: The ability to comprehend or grasp the meaning of something.
