Answer

In order to avoid changing the meaning of the sentence, we need to replace the underlined word with a synonym.

"Pleased" means to be happy about. Of the choices provided, "delighted" means the same thing as "pleased" and "happy".

"Sad", "devastated", and "fearful" are all antonyms of "pleased", they mean the opposite of being happy.
