At (A), we need a verb in its past participle form due to the use of 'have'. 'Wagged' is the only one available and as per its meaning, it is suited to be used at (A). Wag (verb) - Move (an upwards-pointing finger) from side to side to signify disapproval. 'Themselves' is the right word to be used at (D), to refer to the US and the UK. Option D is the right answer.
