Answer:
(D) The verb should be are because a compound subject joined by and always requires a plural form of the verb.
Explanation:
A compound subject consists of two or more simple subjects that share a verb or verb phrase. These subjects are joined by a conjunction such as and, or, or nor, etc.

I did not know what the future held of marvel or surprise for me.
