Answer: The sentences that include only prepositional phrases are "There was no one visible; under him, in the water, the dim shapes of the swimmers had disappeared" and "He could see nothing through the stinging salt water but the blank rock".

Explanation:<u> </u><u>A prepositional phrase is a group of words introduced by a preposition</u>. Generally, a prepositional phrase also includes a noun or a pronoun. The sentence "There was no one visible; under him, in the water, the dim shapes of the swimmers had disappeared" <u>contains two prepositional phrases: "under him" and "in the water"</u>, which have been introduced by "under" and "in" respectively. Furthermore, in the sentence "He could see nothing through the stinging salt water but the blank rock", <u>"through the stinging salt" is a prepositional phrase since it begins with the preposition "through"</u>.

I would definitely say that this is the first option: Teenagers' concerns about appearance can affect their feelings about themselves. 
Why do I think this? Well let me explain. In the first passage, the person specifically prays for the boy they fell in love with, as well as a new nose. That would indicate that they aren't happy with the way they look. 
Now onto the second passage. Alfonso believes that he has to be in amazing shape to get the girls in "cut offs" to notice him, and to think that he's strong and handsome. He wants them to think that he's capable of handling himself, no matter the circumstances. It also states that he hates the way he looks. He's insecure about what he looks like. 
I hope that this helps you.
