Meaning of "virtuous" in the passage
Could anyone help me with this question?
Education gives us knowledge of things around us and it preserves the national noble traditions and customs from generation to generation. Education makes a person more perfect. An educated man is both talented and virtuous. In every country, the government always considers education as the most important policy. According to the writer, why do people study?
1. The word "virtuous" most nearly means:
A. rich B. wise C. excellent D. moral
My option is "moral" because "virtuous" means: having or showing moral goodness. (Encarta Dictionary). How about "B. wise". Thank you for helping me out of this problem.

Hi, Clive!
Nice to see you again. I mistook that "virtuous" has an implied meaning in the context. I see it now. I really appreciate your explanations. They are very clear, thoughtful and easy to understand. You are a good teacher. Hope to see you again. Thanks again.
