Modifiers are words or phrases that modify or change a noun. If you're a native English speaker modifiers can be hard to spot because your brain is smart. For example in option D, the modifiers [with lots of dressing] is supposed to describe the salad, but the modifier is in the wrong place. Instead, it describes the man as having lots of dressing. In Option C the modifiers describe the hamper as something Ralph wore. Option A describes the shed as something made of barbed wire. Option B is the only one correct.
