Correct option is D
The correct option to fill in the blank is (d)
refused.
• “Refused” means to say or show that one is not willing to do something (इंकार करना).
• The sentence suggests the boy was not willing to take the money, hence "refused" fits best.
Example: The boy refused to accept the prize.
Explain why other options are incorrect:
•
ordered – to command someone to do something (आदेश देना)
•
denied – to say that something is not true (इन्कार करना, but used with facts, not actions like “to take”)
•
reminded – to cause someone to remember (याद दिलाना)
