D Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is 'to regard with deep respect' which is the meaning of 'venerate.' To venerate someone or something is to treat them with profound respect and reverence, often due to their age, status, or sacred qualities. The other options are incorrect: to denounce means to publicly condemn, to long for means to desire, and to grow old is unrelated to showing respect.
