Explanation:

Intrinsic motivation is driven by internal factors like personal interest or curiosity, not external rewards or others' approval. Option a involves learning about family history out of personal interest. Option b is for extra money (external reward), c is to make parents happy (external approval), d is for a pie (external reward). So a shows intrinsic motivation.
