Explanation:

- The passage discusses Marie’s early life, focusing on her education and personality.

- Option 1: early

- Correct choice.

- "At an early age" is a common phrase indicating the beginning phase of someone’s life, especially when discussing the display of abilities or talents.

- ?? Correct Answer

- Option 2: ignorant

- Incorrect.

- This word means lacking knowledge or awareness, which does not fit with the sentiment of displaying a brilliant mind.

- Option 3: infant

- Incorrect.

- "At an infant age" is not a standard phrase. "Infant" refers to a very young child, which is too specific for this context.

- Option 4: young

- Incorrect.

- "At a young age" is a valid phrase but "early age" is more suited to imply the beginning of her remarkable abilities.
