Answer:
the last choice, only/alone
Explanation:
all the other choices make sense as the root word sur means, "over," "above," and "in addition to." and the choices "greater than," and "beyond" make sense as well because the root word super means those two things as well as a few of the words that have to do with the root word sur. the only choice that doesn't fit in is the last one.
