Nina usually gets good grades, but her score on the last test was _____.

  • A.common
  • B.competitive
  • C.excellent
  • D.poor

Answer: D

Correct answer: poor

But reverses the direction of the sentence. The first clause establishes that Nina usually gets good grades, so the last test must have gone the other way.

Excellent would agree with the first clause rather than contrast with it, leaving but with nothing to do. Common and competitive do not describe how well a score turned out.
