The correct answer is 3. False.
While shield volcanoes can be large and have lava flows that cover significant areas, they generally do not produce explosive eruptions like stratovolcanoes. They are typically characterized by relatively gentle slopes and eruptions that primarily involve the flow of lava rather than explosive ejection of gases and particulate matter. However, this does not mean that all volcanoes are inherently dangerous; the type of volcano and the nature of its eruptions play significant roles in determining danger levels.

I apologize for any confusion caused by the previous response. Based on the statement you provided—"In spite of their size, shield volcanoes are not that dangerous, because they don't eject bursts of gases & particulate matter"—the statement "All volcanoes are dangerous" is indeed false because it generalizes all volcanoes without differentiation.
It appears the question is assessing the understanding of the inherent dangers of different types of volcanoes. Shield volcanoes, while they can still pose risks (such as lava flow dangers), are often considered less dangerous than stratovolcanoes, which can erupt violently.
So, in context, the correct interpretation would be:
1. All volcanoes are dangerous - False
2. True - Incorrect in this context
3. False - Corresponds with the idea that shield volcanoes are generally less dangerous.
If you are looking for a specific answer based on a different interpretation, please clarify further! Thank you for your patience.
