Solution

The correct option is D Pursuing . . avoiding
Option C is correct option as it is clearly given in sentence that during Renaissance period every second women were forced to marry and not so many were educated but the fighter Cecilia Gonzaga succeeded in pursuing scholarship but avoided the marriage plans also
Other options does not support the reality of the sentence.like in option A succumb means can't resist or fail which means she fail to resist for marriage plans so other options are also irrelevant.
