A
defied
B
accused
C
refused
D
denied
答案解析
正确答案：D
解析：
这是一道词义辨析的题目。首先，我们需要理解句子的整体意思：当被问及丢失的戒指时，他坚决地表示他从未见过。
接下来，我们逐个分析选项：
A项“defied”意为“违抗，反抗”，不符合句意，因为句子中并未提及他对某人的权威或规定进行反抗。
B项“accused”意为“控告，指责”，也不符合句意，因为句子中并未提及他指控或指责任何人。
C项“refused”意为“拒绝”，但拒绝的内容并未在句子中明确给出，且在此语境下，“拒绝”不如“否认”更符合逻辑。
D项“denied”意为“否认”，与句子中的“他从未见过”相呼应，表示他坚决否认自己见过丢失的戒指。
综上所述，D项“denied”最符合句子的语境和意思。正确答案是D。
