Question

Choose the sentence in which the prepositional phrase best modifies a verb saw

a.) I saw the bird flying through the window
b.) flying, I saw a bird through the window
c.) through the window, I saw the bird flying
d.) flying through the window I saw the bird

Answer 1

I believe the answer is "C" (through the window, I saw the bird flying)

Answer 2

C. It modifies the image that the verb saw conjures. It clearly shows us that the verb saw has the blocker or facilitator in the window the person is looking through.
