Solution

The correct answer is:

b) was / had not been attained

This is because the sentence is talking about a past event (the peak being the prize for mountaineers) and something that did not happen before that past event (the peak not being attained). In English, we use the past simple tense to talk about past events, and the past perfect tense to talk about something that did not happen before a past event. Therefore, "was" (past simple) and "had not been attained" (past perfect) are the correct choices.
