1. The answer is B. Because only you could make out what was written in the composition. And everyone else had a problem understanding it. (everyone else = everyone excluding you)

2. The answer is D.
But the sentence looks a little strange to me. "She can't imagine me as a grown-up" looks more natural to me.

May be the gurus would be kind enough to shed more light on it.
