A participial phrase refers to a group of words that contains a verb in the -ing or past form, which is used to describe a noun or a pronoun, and its object. It is best to put the participial phrase near the object it describes.  In the other 3 sentences, the participial phrase makes the thought even confusing; thus, the correct sentence is:  “Peeling off her winter jacket, Sierra settled into the cozy armchair."

Answer:

The sentence that contains a participial phrase placed correctly is the following one: Peeling off her winter jacket, Sierra settled into the cozy armachair.

Explanation:

The sentence above contains a present participle.  All phrases require two or more words, so participle phrases generally include objects and modifiers. What is more, participle phrases always function as adjectives, adding description to the sentence. In the sentence above, the present participle phrase"peeling off her winter jacket" premodifies the noun head "Sierra".

Definition of context
Mrac [35]

Context:

The wind blew through his hair, as he was blowing before the whistle.

What that meant:

It was windy, and he was thinking of ideas, before he said them all in a instant.

Your answer:

Context is a way of describing stuff in metaphor, before it actually happens. As you can see in the example(s) I wrote above.
