     A.  occupations 

     B.  they occupied

     C.  occupies

Answer (A) is the best answer because the sentence needs a noun and in that sentence are object of preposition.  Answer (B) and (D) are incorrect because the sentence does not need the extra subject they, it . Answer (C) is incorrect because occupies is transitive / intransitive verb, whereas after prepositions, we just include a noun or pronoun / place.
