      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The word "futile" refers to something that is pointless or ineffective. In sentences A and C, the word is correctly used to describe efforts and arguments that were unsuccessful. However, sentence B is incorrect because it suggests that the person enjoyed a futile effort, which contradicts the usual negative meaning of the word.
