Answer:
The answer is A.
Explanation:
The word abysmal is derived from the word abyss, so its basic meaning is very deep. However, it can be also used figuratively to describe something bad or catastrophic. Knowing that abysmal is an adjective, we can see the wrong usage of it being represented as a noun and even putting and adjective just right next to it and confirming its role as a noun which <em>abysmal</em> certainly is not.
In the sentence A, we can see that abysmal refers to breaking six pencils, so as an adjective it modifies a noun, while in the other examples other adjectives refer to abysmal, modify it and take it as a noun.
In answers B, C and D we see that this word is used as a noun, thus making A the correct answer.
A sneer has a negative connotation, as it's a scornful statement or tone. Rosy can have a bit positive connotation (to look at something through the rose-colored glasses), tennis shoes and powerhouse are totally neutral words.

Read the excerpt from a news report.
A local youth group, collaborating with Splash and Dash Car Wash, raised more than $450 for their annual trip to Washington, DC. These boys and girls, who work as mentors for younger children in our community, set a goal, organized the plan for a car wash, and worked with local businesses to find the perfect partner for their project. Working side by side with Splash and Dash Car Wash employees, the group washed nearly one hundred cars. As a result, they surpassed their fundraising goals and are able to focus on planning their trip. One student said, "This car wash was successful beyond our wildest dreams."
The trip to Washington, DC, is scheduled for May 19. While they visit the nation's capital, students will tour the monuments, explore the Smithsonian museums, and meet with other youth groups from around the country. They are scheduled to leave early in the morning on May 19. The manager of Splash and Dash said that he and his staff will be there to see the students off on their trip. "These kids are our future leaders. It is wonderful to see their hard work rewarded," he said.
