A Correct answer
Explanation

Acquaintance correctly means knowledge or familiarity with something. The phrase 'had little acquaintance with' means was not very familiar with or knowledgeable about. Acquaintance is a noun meaning familiarity or knowledge. Acquaintanceship means a relationship, acquainted is an adjective, and acquiescence means passive acceptance - only acquaintance works as a noun indicating knowledge.
