This question is about the play "The Importance of Being Earnest" and Algernon is characterized through Jack's words. We can say the following is the most accurate conclusion about Algernon:
D. He is mischievous to suit his happiness.
In Wilde's play, Algernon is a bachelor whose actions are mischievous, fun, playful. He is interpreted to be an embodiment of Oscar Wilde's own personality.
The way Jack describes Algernon shows the latter has no scruples whatsoever. To have things his way, he is willing to lie and pretend, all the while having fun and enjoying life.
With the information above in mind, we can choose letter D as the best option.
The missing excerpt to answer this question is the following:
JACK. I fear there can be no possible doubt about the matter. This afternoon during my temporary absence in London on an important question of romance, he obtained admission to my house by means of the false pretence of being my brother. Under an assumed name he drank, I've just been informed by my butler, an entire pint bottle of my Perrier-Jouet, Brut, '89; wine I was specially reserving for myself. Continuing his disgraceful deception, he succeeded in the course of the afternoon in alienating the affections of my only ward.
