Final answer:

Option A. Field is the correct answer as it follows the 'I' before 'E' rule with 'I' coming before 'E' and no 'C' preceding it, adhering to the standard spelling convention.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question pertains to the well-known spelling rule that usually dictates 'I' before 'E' except after 'C', or when sounding like 'A' as in 'neighbor' or 'weigh'. When we apply this rule, we determine that 'field' adheres to it because the 'I' comes before the 'E', and there is no 'C' before the 'IE' pair. The word should sound like 'EE', which is the case with 'field'. Hence, Option A. Field is the correct answer as it follows the 'I' before 'E' rule.
