A Correct answer
Explanation

The context describes a hard-working person, suggesting we need a word meaning 'not working' or 'lazy' for the blank. 'Idle' means not active or lazy, which contrasts perfectly with hard-working. 'Idol' refers to a revered person or image, and 'ideal' means perfect, neither of which fit the sentence context.
