Correct Answer: Certainty


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

  • The antonym of "misconception" in this context, where learning is linked to success, is "certainty". Certainty implies a clear and accurate understanding.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • "Illusion" is not an antonym in this context. It refers to a deceptive appearance or false belief, which is similar to a misconception.
  • "Hallucination" is unrelated to the context and refers to a perception of something that is not present.
  • "Fallacy" is a synonym of misconception and does not serve as an antonym.

So, the correct sentence would be: "It is a certainty that the more you learn, the more likely you are to succeed."
