Solution

The correct option is A trip

Italicized word ‘Excursion’ means short trip or journey. So, the best fit as meaning of this word will be Option A, trip. School took students for a three-day Goa trip. Option B ‘picnic’ means when we take packed food to eat outside with family or friends like an outing, it is usually for one day. So, it cannot be three-day picnic to Goa as per the sentence. Option C ‘Visit’ is usually used when we go and see a person to spend time socially. Option D ‘Tournament’ is a series of contests in sports or any game. So, options C and D are also incorrect. The best fit as meaning for the word will be ‘trip’, option A.
