    Solution

    In A, we need an adverb to qualify the verb FELT. The sentence talks about how he was extremely scared of going through the same ordeal again. In B, we need an appropriate verb to follow the word TO. The sentence talks of his decision to leave his job. In C, we need an adjective that has been modified by the word LESS. The sentence talks of his search for a job that is not as dangerous as his previous one. TERRIFIED would be apt for A, QUIT for B, and DANGEROUS for C. Hence, (d) is the correct answer.
