Explanation

The phrase 'regained her composure quickly even on those ---- occasions' suggests such occasions are rare. 'Infrequent' means rarely happening, fitting perfectly. 'Imperturbable' means calm and unflappable, matching someone who regains composure quickly. 'Momentous' means very important, 'unforgiving' doesn't fit the context, and 'trying' means difficult (but doesn't pair well with 'insistent').
