Answer

14. **C) boisterous, gambol** is the best choice. "Boisterous" means lively and energetic, which fits the description of the pony being "full of energy and high spirits." "Gambol" means to skip or leap about playfully, which aligns with the image of the pony moving "gracefully across the field."15. **D) energy and high spirits, gracefully across the field** are the key phrases. "Energy and high spirits" directly describes the pony's nature, pointing towards a word like "boisterous." "Gracefully across the field" describes the pony's movement, leading to the choice of "gambol."
