First Sub - Question (Understanding "inconspicuously")
To understand "inconspicuously", we analyze the context. "Inconspicuously" means to do something in a way that is not easily noticed. The phrase "away from the lights" suggests an action (parking) done to avoid being seen, which helps in understanding the meaning of "inconspicuously". Option A ("parked next door") just tells the location, not about being unnoticeable. Option B ("just in front of the neighbor’s") would be a noticeable spot. Option D ("around the dead man’s yard") doesn't relate to being unnoticeable. So the best phrase is "away from the lights".
In the sentence "They had all vacated the car long before I was free...", the context implies that the people left the car. "Vacated" in this context means to leave or exit the vehicle, as the speaker is still trying to get out ( "crawl out") while they had already left the car.

Second Sub - Question (Meaning of "vacated")
(Note: Since the options for the "vacated" question are not fully visible, we can only provide the general approach. If we assume common options related to leaving a vehicle, "vacated" in the context of "vacated the car" would mean leaving or exiting the car. For example, if the options included "left" or "exited", that would be the correct choice. But with the given partial image, we can infer the meaning based on context: "vacated" here means the people left the car, as the speaker says they were out of the car long before the speaker could get out. )
