Final answer:

Among the given words, 'Offense' is the one that does not belong, as it refers to an action or violation rather than being an emotion like the other words listed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to select the word that does not belong among the list given. Most of the words are emotions or feelings: Envious, Excitement, Anxious, Sympathy, Pity, Enthusiasm, and Fury. These are states of being. The word Offense, however, primarily signifies an action or a breach of a law or rule, rather than an emotion. Therefore, option d) Offense is the word that does not belong in the list, as it is not an emotion.
