The correct answer is C. expectation.
- Wonder is a feeling of surprise and admiration caused by something beautiful, unexpected, unfamiliar, or inexplicable.
- Stock is a supply of goods or merchandise kept on hand for sale or use.
- Amusement is the feeling of enjoyment and pleasure caused by something funny, entertaining, or interesting.
- Surprise is a feeling of astonishment caused by something unexpected or unusual.
Expectation is the feeling that something will happen or be the case. It is the opposite of surprise, because it is a feeling that something is going to happen, rather than a feeling of astonishment when it does happen.
For example, if you are expecting a friend to visit, you will not be surprised when they arrive. However, if you are not expecting a friend to visit, you will be surprised when they arrive.
