The first is correct.

Technically, this sentence does not have a compound verb. Check these sites about compound verbs.

Perhaps it's d.
There is no compound verb in the second sentence. No choice you make will be correct!
You could rewrite the sentence:
She >u>toured India and visited the cities of New Delhi and Calcutta.
The compound verb is "toured" and "visited."
(My html coding was messed up!)
Now I know that rewriting the sentence is not usually an option in an objective exercise or test, but you could point this out to your teacher and let him/her know that you understand the mistake in that sentence!
To determine which of the options is not a noun, we need to understand what a noun is. A noun is a word that represents a person, place, thing, or idea.
Let's go through the options:
A) "Puerto Rico" - This is a proper noun that represents a place, so it is a noun.
B) "Grow" - This can be a verb, but it can also be a noun when it refers to a specialized type of hair or skin growth. Therefore, it can be considered a noun.
C) "Peace" - This is an abstract noun that represents an idea or concept, so it is a noun.
D) "Magazine" - This is a common noun that represents a thing, so it is a noun.
Based on the options given, it seems that all of them are nouns, so the answer is none of the above.
Now, let's determine the compound verb in the given sentence: "Don't forget to visit the cities of New Delhi and Calcutta while touring India."
A compound verb is a verb made up of two or more words that work together to convey a meaning. In this sentence, the compound verb is "visit" and "touring." The subject "you" is understood in this sentence.
Since the focus is on the compound verb, the answer is C) "visit/touring".
It is important to note that sentence structure and context are crucial in understanding the parts of speech and identifying compound verbs.
