Lucy is conducting a survey about herself and how crabby she is. Charlie Brown is hesitant to answer Lucy's survey because he is afraid that if he answers truthfully, he might hurt Lucy's feelings. He is nervous because he does not want to upset her.
Answer:
D). She is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all situations.
Explanation:
As per the given excerpt from 'Homecoming,' the last statement most aptly describes the mood and temperament of Dicey that 'she is undergoing a bad time in feeling safe in almost every situation.'

Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
