Are these suitable questions to ask based on the blue sentences? (8.2)

Hi teachers,
This is for a writing exercise.
If this is what the students have: “Tom and Susan are in the mountains. They are both skiing very badly at the moment, but he is skiing even worse that she is. At least she can keep her balance much better than him. It is hard for both of them because they are both beginners. We cannot be sure which one is going to fall down first, but Tom seems to be the one.”
Are these suitable questions to ask based on the blue sentences?
a) Who hasn't lost the stability yet? Neither of them has.
b) Is it difficult for Tom to skii?
c) Why is it so?
d) Does Tom seem to be the one who is going to drop to the ground first? (Could this one be shorter?)

Thanks in advance.

Mister Micawberd) Who is might drop to the ground first?
Hi Mister Micawber,
Thank you for you reply and corrections.
Letter 'd' shouldn't it be, 'Who might drop to the ground first?', without 'is'.

Hi Mister Micawber,
You have given me the below questions before.
b) Is it difficult for Tom to ski?
c) Why is this so?

My question is, 'Can I put together b and c?'
If possible, which one?
1. Is it difficult for Tom to ski and why is this so?
2. Is it difficult for Tom to ski and why this is so?

Thanks in advance.
