Resolução comentada
Sequência correta: highly / daunting / treacherous / elusive.
'Highly specialized' é um advérbio que modifica um adjetivo. 'Daunting' (intimidante) descreve tasks perigosas. 'Treacherous depths' é um adjetivo diante de substantivo. 'Elusive objectives' são objetivos difíceis de alcançar.
Análise das alternativas
'Dauntless' significa destemido e não descreve tarefas. 'Treachery' é substantivo (traição) e 'delusive' (enganoso) não combina com objetivos. 'Higher' e 'high' não funcionam como advérbio antes de 'specialized'.
Referência: Vocabulário – adjetivos e advérbios.
