ignominious : reprehensible ::
  1. audacious : pusillanimous
  2. surly : considerate
  3. reverent : derisive
  4. peerless : superior
Explanation
Answer: Choice (D) is correct.

Ignominious means humiliating, shameful, and reprehensible, so look for the answer choice that contains synonyms. Choice (A) is incorrect. Audacious means daring and bold, while pusillanimous means spineless and weak. Choice (B) is also incorrect because it contains antonyms. Surly means gruff and impolite, not considerate. Choice (C) is incorrect because reverent means respectful, not derisive, rude, or disrespectful. In choice (D), peerless means without equal, or superior, so that is the correct choice.
