The British Parliament responded to the fierce confrontation of colonists for the Stamp Act and boycott of English goods by repealing the Stamp Act in 1766 and passing the Declaration Act.

Answer: Options C & D

Step-by-step explanation:

The Stamp Act was the first internal tax Act, passed in 1765 to enhance the revenue for the British Army by imposing tax on all paper works done by the American colonists.

The American colonists appealed against the Act, saying that only their own representatives could tax them and not the British Parliament. They confronted that the Act was unconstitutional and should be repealed.

The British Government eventually repealed the Act in 1766 but passed another Act i.e. the Declaration Act to reaffirm its authority on any colonial legislation needed to be passed. However, these act didn't resolve the tension between the British Government and the American colonists.
