Answer 1

d) vanquish

Step-by-step explanation:

The verb vanquish means 'triumph over', or 'win a resounding victory over'. It certainly has a connotation that helps create a boastful tone in the paragraph. The other verbs (roam; participate; build) sound a lot more neutral in this respect and have little or no connotation of boastfulness.

Answer 2

d) vanquish

Step-by-step explanation:

The word "vanquish" is the one that most strongly conveys a boastful tone. This word means "to conquer" or "to defeat," especially when doing so due to superior force. This word can create a boastful tone due to the fact that it implies a strong power or superior capacity. This is a connotation, or an implied meaning that is additional to the denotation (dictionary meaning) of the word.
