    Solution

    The word ‘industrious’ means ‘regularly working very hard’. This is the correct word that can be used. The other words ‘distinguished’, ‘illustrious’ and ‘prestigious’ cannot be ‘by nature’ of a person. They mean ‘famous, well respected, and admired’.   They were industrious by nature with a strong work ethic and a firm belief in self-sufficiency.
