What word or phrase is modified by the prepositional phrase in the sentence below?

Just like his teacher instructed, Luke played his trumpet for two hours every day.
A.
played
B.
every day
C.
teacher
D.
instructed

B EVERYDAY

Explanation:

A. Played

Explanation:

The prepositional phrase in this sentence is "for two hours." This phrase modifies the word "played." It explains how long Luke played his trumpet each day.

the answer is definitely option c. "sonnet xxxi best illustrates the division. in the octave, the poet observes that the moon is in love. in the sestet, he gives his reaction to the fickleness of woman's love."

the sentence that best describes the tone of the passage from the radio broadcast compared to the passage from the book is b. the radio broadcast has a more surprised tone.

consider the text evidence: in the passage from the book, the description is more matter-of-fact. it is simply describing the things resembling little grey snakes, but there is no urgency in the description. on the other hand, in the passage from the radio broadcast, there is definetely urgency (you can tell from the expression used, "good heavens", which clearly indicates surprise.)
