Solution

The correct option is B greediness
Option B is the correct answer because 'avarice' means extreme greed for wealth or material gain.
Options A, C and D are incorrect because 'voracious' means wanting or devouring great quantities of food, 'loftiness' means elevated in style, tone or sentiment and 'cleverness' refers to the quality of being clever; intelligence or shrewdness.
