abysmal : dreadful ::

superb : splendid
outstanding : terrible
obtuse : intelligent
imperceptive : sensitive

Explanation

Answer: Choice (A) is correct.

If something is abysmal, it is dreadful or extremely bad. Abysmal and dreadful are synonyms, so you are looking for a pair of words that are synonyms. In this case, superb and splendid are synonyms. All of the other pairs (outstanding/terrible, obtuse/intelligent, imperceptive/sensitive) are antonyms, so eliminate those.
