Detailed explanation-1: -Meno proposes that virtue is the desire for good things and the power to get them. Socrates points out that this raises a second problem-many people do not recognize evil.
Detailed explanation-2: -Meno next suggests that virtue is being able to rule over people, but Socrates dismisses this suggestion on two grounds: first, it is not virtuous for slaves or children to rule over people, and second, ruling is virtuous only if it is done justly.
Detailed explanation-3: -One of Socrates’ arguments late in the Meno, that virtue probably cannot be taught because men who are widely considered virtuous have not taught it even to their own sons, is also used near the beginning of Plato’s Protagoras.
Detailed explanation-4: -Meno, remembering the two hypotheses proposed by Socrates, happily concludes that, since virtue is knowledge, people must learn it by being taught.
