The word "invaluable" in the context of the sentence means extremely useful or of great value. The opposite of "invaluable" is something without value or usefulness. Therefore, "worthless" (option C) is the choice that is nearly opposite in meaning to "invaluable." If something is "worthless," it has little or no value.
