Solution

The correct option is B likes solving mysteries
We have to keep two things in mind while completing the given sentence: context and grammar. 'He' is our subject which is a third-person-singular pronoun hence we need a verb that agrees with the subject. The verb in option A) 'likes' agrees with the subject as it is singular in nature and fits in the context as it is clearly mentioned that George enjoys his work, so it is obvious that he likes solving mysteries.
We can rule out options B and D as they do not fit contextually with the given statement.
Option C is not the correct answer as its verb 'like' is plural in nature and does not agree with our singular subject 'he'.
