Correct Answer: Disgrace


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The word fame refers to being widely known, renowned, or celebrated for achievements or positive reasons. Disgrace represents a state of dishonour, shame, or loss of reputation. So, in the given options, "disgrace" contrasts with "fame", as it signifies the opposite quality of having a negative reputation or being infamous.

The meanings of other words are:

  • Laurels: This refers to honour, fame, or distinction, often associated with achievements or victories.
  • Glory: It signifies great honour, praise, or distinction.
  • Distinction: This indicates being recognised as outstanding or different from others, often in a positive manner.

Therefore, the right answer is disgrace.
