pleasure is pronounced as [ˈplɛʒə], our area of emphasis is on the ''ea'' sound which goes thus ''ɛ''. As usual, i am going to give you the pronunciation of all the options above and the one with the same vowel sound as depicted above, will be the correct answer.
pliable--- [ˈplʌɪəb(ə)l]
pleat----- [pliːt]
plenary-- [ˈpliːnəri]
jeopardy--- [ˈdʒɛpədi]. from the list of possible pronunciations above, you can see that only jeopardy [ˈdʒɛpədi] has the vowel sound ''ɛ'' and it is therefore the correct answer to the question.
