Solution

The correct option is C disappointed - cursory
The adjective 'disappointed' (past of 'disappoint') means to be sad or displeased because someone or something has failed to fulfill one's hopes or expectations and it best befits the context of the first blank whereas the adjective 'cursory' means to take a very hasty look and therefore not thorough or detailed which fits the context of the second blank. Thus C is the correct answer- it fits the given context and conveys the required meaning.
Frederica was disappointed when her supervisor took only a cursory look at her essay over which she had taken so much care.
None of the other choices fit the context.
