Answer

Sterling means of great value.

Explanation

First of all, it seems that answer choice A, C, and D are similar, leaving B the outlier. If you picked A, C and D would be viable answers as well. The same thing applies if you picked C or D.

Another way you could have figured this out is with the context in the sentence. She wanted to give Jim something <u>fine</u> and <u>rare</u>, which are synonyms for of great value.
