Correct Answer: A
Explanation
Ignorance is the absence of common sense and basic knowledge. Ignorance is the attribute of the arrogant, egoistic and selfish people. When people indulge in self importance only and are being arrogant, being egoistic, being selfish and just care about worldly status are good example of ignorant people.
