Solution

The correct answer is "scoffed". The sentence should read: "Victor scoffed at Lisha’s suggestion that he exchange his chocolate cupcake for her banana, and he spent the remainder of lunch ridiculing the idea that anyone would ever agree to such a trade." The word "scoffed" fits best in this context as it means to express scorn or derision.
