Hmmm...
I always am cautious with C), NEVER.

Answer:

C) Never

Step-by-step explanation:

Standardized tests are used to provide a common measure for students of diverse backgrounds. Based only on school records, it is difficult for a university to compare a student from a small private school in Texas to a student from a large Brazilian school in São Paulo. The standardized test provides an objective way to assess student performance, regardless of background.

In this type of test, care must be taken with words with extreme and absolute meanings such as "never" and "always".
