<u><em>In Coleridge’s poem the story is told by the Ancient mariner himself to an unwilling listener on his way to a wedding. During a voyage his ship was driven by a storm towards the South pole and caught in floating ice.
</em></u>
<u><em>Suddenly an albatross arrived and the sailors hailed it as a sign of good luck, soon after the ice split, the wind blew and the ship, followed by the bird sailed north until the Mariner shot the albatross without a reason. The ship arrived to the Equator where the wind dropped. </em></u>
<u><em>The Mariner and the crew were immobile, the water supply ran out, they saw disgusting water snakes crawling on the surface of the sea. The sailor blamed the mariner and hung around his neck the body of the albatross to remind him of his evil deed. After that a skeleton of a ship arrived with Spectre- Woman and Life-in- Death as the only crew. Life- in-dead won the Mariner and then the Mariner’s shipmates died and so the mariner was left alone, trying to pray but he couldn’t.
</em></u>
<u><em>So the dead bodies of his shipmates inhabited by angelic spirits began to work again and the ship moved to the Mariner’s native land. The Mariner was safe but he had a penance, actually he was condemned to wander through the world, relate his tale for all the eternity.

Answer:
I would say B too because of the type of website they would be looking for (television.) It could also be A, but to be honest I think this is one of those questions where the answer you give doesn't matter as long as it is a good explanation.
Explanation:
<u>Answer</u>:
- The sign cautioned swimmers to stay within the designated swimming area–adverbial phrase.
- The lifeguards on the beach watched the swimmers carefully–adjectival phrase.
- Children and their parents built sandcastles with tall towers–adjectival phrase
- Seagulls soared over the water, searching for food–adjectival phrase.
<u>Explanation</u><em>:</em>
<em>- The sign cautioned swimmers to stay within the designated swimming area:</em>
In this sentence, the word "within" acts as an adverbial phrase telling us where the swimmers were asked to stay. And the words "stay within the designated swimming area" is a prepositional phrase since it uses the preposition "within".
<em>- The lifeguards on the beach watched the swimmers carefully</em>:
Remember, adjectives are known for ending with 'ly', and the word "carefully" modifies the sentence, telling us how the lifeguards watched the swimmers.
<em>- Children and their parents built sandcastles with tall towers:</em>
This is the case because the adjective "tall" is used in the sentence to modify the word "tower", in a sense telling us the type of towers built.
<em>- Seagulls soared over the water, searching for food:</em>
The adjective "searching" is used to modify the entire sentence telling us what the Seagulls soared the waters for.
