The underlined word in the given sentence is "seclusion". To understand its meaning, we can look at the context of the sentence. It says that Ravi loves seclusion and therefore, he lives in the mountains. From this, we can infer that seclusion refers to a state or condition of being alone or isolated.

Option 1: "nature" does not have the same meaning as seclusion. Nature typically refers to the physical world, including plants, animals, landscapes, etc.

Option 2: "scripture" refers to religious texts or writings, which does not convey the same meaning as seclusion.

Option 3: "seafaring" refers to traveling or working on the sea, which is unrelated to the meaning of seclusion.

Option 4: "solitariness" is the most appropriate word that is nearest in meaning to seclusion. Solitariness refers to the state or quality of being alone or isolated, which aligns with the context of the sentence.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
