Correct Answer: toiling
Solution : 'Continuing' in the first option means to carry on an activity or process. 'Functioning' in the second option means to work in a particular manner whereas 'learning' in the third option means to acquire knowledge by studying or experience. So all these three options are out of context with respect to the sentence.
The fourth option fits in well contextually because 'toiling' means struggling hard in order to achieve results. 'Toiling' thus matches the context of the sentence.
Thus, the complete sentence should be "He could excel in his board exams only after toiling very hard."
