Question: 309
19. After losing for the sixth time in a row, the basketball team hoped they had reached the _______ of their season.
- A. nadir
- B. malady
- C. pinnacle
- D. conclusion
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
A is correct. Chances are that a team would not consider a six-game losing streak to be the pinnacle (meaning "the highest point") of their season. As well, conclusion (choice D) can be eliminated as the team would likely know when their season was over. Nadir (choice A), meaning "the lowest point" or "the time of greatest depression or adversity," is the correct answer.
