A) unfortunate and miserable.

Explanation:

The word "downtrodden" means oppression. Oppressed is an adjective used to define the individual who was humiliated or forced to submit to something or something that left him feeling unhappy and miserable.

Oppression is the feeling of being choked, having difficulty breathing, also in the figurative sense. Oppression makes people feel unhappy, humiliated and miserable because they can not do what they need or want.
