Explanation:

• For the first sentence: "fussbudget" means a person who is overly concerned with trivial details and is often irritable, which fits the description of an unhappy woman. "hoity - toity" means snobbish or arrogant, and "ballyhoo" means noisy or excessive publicity.
• For the second sentence: "ballyhoo" means a great deal of noise or publicity, which is appropriate for the situation of foreign government officials causing a commotion. "hoity - toity" is about snobbishness, and "fussbudget" is about being overly fussy.
• For the third sentence: "kerfuffle" means a commotion or fuss, which is suitable for the situation of landing a helicopter on a high - school roof. "persnickety" means overly fussy about details, and "fussbudget" is a person, not the situation.

Answer:

1. fussbudget
2. ballyhoo
3. kerfuffle
