The students who had the flu had a(n) _____ reason for missing school. They normally have perfect attendance, and their absence
that day was a(n) _____ A. unjustifiable … travesty
B. legitimate … aberration
C. unwarranted … anomaly
D. sensible … farce
E. inconsolable … fluke
I crossed out C, D, and E so far.
