From your php.ini remove those above functions from disable_functions.

How to locate the php.ini file (xampp)

php.ini file is available in xamp folder

Contact your hosting! :)

Or try:

file_get_contents('http://api.stackoverflow.com/1.1/search?tagged=php'); // Most likely it's also blocked.

You can also try to download with streams.

Or use sockets and connect directly to server and send a HTTP request and parse the response yourself.

There are ways, don't know if they work on your setup... if cURL is not available.

Open your php.ini file and check for disable_functions over there. And see whether your curl_init is packed there or not! Here is More information
