Answer:

The underlined word is pent-up, so the meaning is C. stored up.

Explanation:

The noun pen  can refer to a small enclosure for domestic animals. The verb to pen, thus, refers to the action of confining something in or as in a pen. The past participle form of pen is pent. Thus, the adjective pent-up refers to something that has been confined, repressed, held or kept inside.

In the context of the sentence "His pent-up energy found an outlet in a raucous game of tag football", the best option for a synonym or meaning to pent-up is C. stored up. It can actually substitute the adjective without any loss to the sentence:

"His stored-up energy found an outlet in a raucous game of tag football."

The use of a, an, or the is a signal that a______ is coming
Art [367]
The use of a, an, or the is a signal that a noun is coming.
In the English language, only nouns are preceded by articles. A is used when a noun starts with a consonant (a book, a table, a bottle); an is used when the noun starts with a vowel (an apple, an umbrella, an avocado); the is used when you are referring to a particular thing (The boy I just met is called Mark.)
