Answer 2

The correct answer is a. It describes the effect of the tall stone walls.

The clause is describing what consequences the walls had in the garden, which was therefore quieter without the noise and bustle of the city.

The remaining options are not accurate because:

b. the clause doesn't have time expressions.

c. the clause is not modifying the garden.

d. the clause is not modifying the verb.
