Solution

The correct option is D Quest
'Pursuit' means the action of pursuing someone or something.
"the cat crouched in the grass in pursuit of a bird"
In this context, "The basic drive in the philosopher's life was the pursuit of knowledge and of happiness", 'pursuit' means a journey or a quest. Hence, option C is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the appropriate information.
