Solution
The correct option is D Over and above The given statement attempts to convey that in addition to being a hard worker, the person is also one of the most skillful, at his trade. The adverb 'far and away' means by far or decidedly, which is not the apt answer for the given statement. Thus option A is incorrect. Whereas 'now and then' means occasionally, while 'over and over' means frequently which once again fail to convey the right meaning of the statement. Therefore option B and C are incorrect. On the other hand, the adverb 'over and above' means in addition to or besides, which is the suitable answer for the given context. So option D is correct.
