B. To entertain readers with an interesting anecdote from the author’s childhood
Answer:
It is a noun phrase.
Explanation:
This is because a noun is being used here and it has a part of a sentence having no finite verb.
The sentence is correct.
Here, "nicely" is serving as an adverb to give an information about the verb of the sentence ("talk"). Even though it comes from the adjective <em>nice</em>, which would modify a noun or a pronoun and not a verb, the addition of the suffix <em>-ly</em> makes it an adverb. That is why it works in this sentence.
Other examples could be:
- <em>quick - quickly</em>
- <em>heavy - heavily</em>
- <em>sot - softly</em>
