For this question, we are trying to figure out which verb fits the structure of the sentence better.
To do this, we must first find which word the verb is defining. The subject of a sentence (except in a few rare cases) is typically before the verb, and is always a noun.
There are two nouns in the sentence (Someone and rows). Which one is the verb expressing?
Well, let's think about it. Are the rows coughing? Somehow, I doubt it, so we're left with Someone. Someone is a singular pronoun, so the appropriate defining verb would be 'was'.
"Someone a few rows ahead was coughing uncontrollably, so I missed the speaker's closing words."
Hope that helped =)

Explanation:
Central idea is also known as main idea. Definition: The central idea (main idea) in a piece of writing is the point that the author wants you to remember most. Some writers may state the main idea, but it is often implied, which means the reader has to make inferences (what the text says + what I know) about it.
