This is the original sentence: <span>In a feeding frenzy, the pigeons descended upon the breadcrumbs that the kindly old man on the park bench continued to toss.
The correct answer is the prepositional phrase "on the park bench" acts as an adjectival phrase.
A is incorrect because a prepositional phrase cannot be a gerund phrase too. B is incorrect because a prepositional phrase cannot be a verb phrase as well. D is incorrect because 'to toss' is not a prepositional phrase, but rather an infinitive.

Answer:
At the story's conclusion, Dillard reveals that being chased made her happy in some ways. To quote Annie at the end of the book, "If in that snowy backyard, the driver of the black Buick had cut off our heads, Mikey’s and mine, I would have died happy." Dillard isn't telling her readers to be foolish for fun. The author says it's okay if you get in trouble occasionally because being happy says the author. Annie knew it was wrong to throw snowballs at passing cars, but she did it anyway. The author exaggerates the thrilling parts of the story. Dillard describes the three runners' many twists and turns to help readers understand Annie's exhilaration. Dillard ends the essay without explaining what the man does after calling the kids "foolish." The author shifts focus to how she felt rather than what the enraged businessman did. Annie Dillard writes for readers to relate to and learn from.
