Correct Answer: 4


Solution : The error is in the fourth option.

The correct sentence is: "The ancients considered that knowledge had its limits."

"The ancients" is a noun that means the people who lived in ancient times. The article "the" is used with an adjective to refer to a whole group of people. Here, "The ancients" is the right usage.
