Explanation:

- The passage discusses options for investing in recurring deposits and how they can be a good way to save regularly.
- **Option 1: along** - Typically used to refer to moving in a constant direction on a path or to mean "in addition to" in some contexts. In this case, it does not fit smoothly.
- Option 2: among - Generally used to indicate being part of a group or between items. It doesn’t suit the context here.
- Option 3: besides - Means "in addition to." However, it can suggest an alternative or extra choice, which doesn’t entirely fit here.
- **Option 4: as well as** - Used to connect items that are equally important or additional. It fits best to mean that you get both the amount invested and the interest earned.

Given the context of the passage, the interest is not just "along" but added to the invested amount. The correct phrase is similar to "together with" or "as well as."
**✅ Option 4: as well as**
