Explanation:

Question 1

The story starts by introducing Leisha and her friend Toni, and the events described (going to the zoo, seeing animals, etc.) revolve around them. So the story is about Leisha and her friend Toni.

The text says "Leisha and her friend Toni had gone to the zoo" and later describes their activities there, so the place where the story takes place is the zoo.

We need to summarize the main events: Leisha and Toni went to the zoo, saw various animals, had a great time, didn't notice the time, were surprised when they saw it was 5:00 (zoo closing time), and then had to go home.

Answer:

The story is about Leisha and her friend Toni.
