Noopur and Payel have a point.. Crisis seems to be a better answer rather than misfortune imo... Adversity - troubling or a difficult situation Crisis Could also be a troubling or difficult situation.

Crisis generally needs to be supported by some description; say, economic crisis, water crisis etc. So it basically a type of problem and needs a descriptive to complete its meaning and takes form of a noun. But, misfortune and adversity both are complete in themselves, and are adverbs (adverb of time).
