Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

The phrase "will measurable" should be replaced with "is measured". In this context, "measured" is an adjective that describes something careful and deliberate. On the other hand, "measurable" is an adjective indicating the ability to be measured. The word "measured" is the past participle form of the verb "measure" and is appropriate in the passive voice construction used in the sentence.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Part of what a man learns is measured as specific knowledge and skills, while another part involves changes.
