The only thing i could think about when i was laying on the ground with my eyse closed was "will i be able to come out?' it started with imaginging i was laying on the beach with the sun on my face and skin but took a sudden turn when my mind couldnt shut off about my sad place, my sad place brought me to when i imagined i was in a basement in the cold and damp and the only poeple that visited me was the peopel who came to laugh at me as my misery gave them misery, on the count of three i suddenly came out of my sad place but was in tears. when going around the room my teacher asked if i got to my happy place and the only words i could get out through my throbbing throat was ' i couldnt come out"
The original meaning (and still the formal meaning) of 'queer' is actually 'strange' or 'weird'. The excerpt is probably from a few decades ago or was written/spoken within a formal context. The new, more common meaning of 'queer' was born from old beliefs of a prejudiced society, where homossexual people were considered to be 'weird', therefore it's a pejorative term, and it's generally not received well by the homessexual community. As the word 'gay', which originally means 'glad', but with time had its meaning changed first colloquially, then gramatically ('glad' does not imply a pejorative connotation, however).
So the meaning of the stanza wouldn't change it the words mentioned were used intead.

The other ones are incorrect because they make no SENSE and you are talking about a biography which includes real life accomplishment and a real person. Obviously her being a fictional character wouldn't fit the picture since you are talking about a biography.

(D) That Leila is shocked at what the driver of the convertible did
Incredulous is defined as being "unwilling to admit or accept what is offered as true". If we analyze the sentence carefully, we can sort of make out how she feels, but if we completely remove the word from the sentence and input something we can understand a little easier, such as:
<em>"...</em><u><em>incredibly surprised</em></u><em> that he would stop traffic just to yell at another driver behind him."</em>
We can see that it fits right in.
Lastly, look at the word itself. It has a lot in common with "incredible" which is a much more commonly used word, knowing that it means "too improbably to be believed". This is one of the best methods for finding out the meaning to words we don't know. It won't be perfect 100% of the time, but in most cases it works.
