Solution

The correct option is B tragedy
One of the features of a tragedy is that the lead often suffers from a "fatal flaw." In the given passage, Faustus is alone in his study reviewing his achievements in a manner that hints at arrogance- he regards himself as having already attained "logic's chiefest end" and advises himself to not read further. This arrogance is probably Faustus's "fatal flaw." Thus, the passage carries a major feature of a tragedy. So, we can say that the answer is option B.
