Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 1 : the highest peak in the world

The sentence is stating the highest peak in the world. Since it is a specific thing, we need to use the definite article ‘the’ before it. Also the sentence is using the superlative degree and so we say ‘the highest peak in the world’ making option A the correct answer. There cannot be many highest peaks in the world and so options C and D are incorrect.
