The correct answer is B) She ruled the bright clouds that gleam in the summer sky and caused them to pour their showers on meadow, forest, and mountains.

Explanation:

In the original sentence, the section "on meadow, forest, and where the mountains were" is grammatically incorrect because the element "where the mountains were" does not follow the same pattern that "meadow, forest". This makes the sentence to be more difficult to read and it interrupts the natural flow the sentence should have. In this context, to make the sentence correct and preserve the parallelism (consistency in structure) the best is to include only the word "mountains". This occurs in option B "on meadow, forest, and mountains."
