Here’s how to think about it:

- The sentence is: "Rama has been very unlucky in the last few years."

- Option 1: unnerving – This means something that makes you feel anxious or nervous. Doesn’t fit here.

- Option 2: hapless – This means someone who suffers bad luck. Basically, it’s a fancy way to say "unlucky."

- Option 3: undeserving – This is about whether someone is worthy or not, not about luck.

- Option 4: degraded – This means being made to feel less important or respected. Not the point here.

The right option is option 2: hapless. That’s the word that captures “very unlucky.”
