Answer: D

Correct answer: A poor man can earn wealth if he has ability.

To call ability the poor man’s wealth is to say that it is what he has to trade on, and therefore his route to acquiring wealth of the ordinary kind. The statement says nothing about rich men in either direction, and nothing about poor men who lack ability, so the other three options all supply information the saying does not contain.

The statement says children need to be equipped for a future task, and a recommendation is only meaningful if it can be acted on, so the possibility of educating them is assumed.

The notice asks people to walk down; it does not say why.
