Im assuming you're talking about the short story The Bet by Anton Chekhov. so in the bet the banker was certain the young man would not be able to last long. in getting caught up in the argument the banker made a bet with the young man saying he couldn't last 5 years for two million. he was certain the young man wouldn't last long and would prove his point that much more.

Answer:

B. Very Bad  

Explanation:

We can infer the meaning of "appalling" by looking at the surrounding information of the word, that is to say, by using context clues. Phrases like "An awful fate" and "the worst I’ve ever seen" helps us infer that "appalling" is not a good thing, instead, it must refer to something very bad, horrifying or astonishing.
