Complete question:

How best could a reader relate to Stacey's feelings in the excerpt?

by listening to a friend's story about being angry with someone

by thinking about a time when one felt angry because of a friend's behavior

by thinking about a time when one felt happy about a friend's behavior

by listening to one's teacher explain why Stacey is unhappy in this part of the story

Explanation:

The best way to relate to the way that Stacey is feeling is to briefly feel the same disgust that he felt when T. J. grinned at him. Since his annoyance and disapproval is directed at a friend, the most accurate way of recreating a similar feeling is to think of a time when a friends behavior seemed disgusting or repulsive.
