B. admiration
C. gratitude
D. mistrust

The correct answer is D. The typical colonial view towards the executive power could be best described as one of mistrust.

Especially, the powers of the British crown over the colonies were seen as oppressors of the freedoms of the colonists, but necessary for the protection of the territory against the French threat from what is now Canada. However, after the French and Indian War, the American colonists realized that they could defend their territories without the help of the metropolis, with which this distrust was exacerbated, culminating in the imposition of the Intolerable Acts and the subsequent beginning of the American Revolution.
