Answer:

D. The bumpy road jangled the carriage that we drove around the lake.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above sentence uses a prepositional phrase as an adverbial phrase. This is true because it's seen that the word "around" can be a preposition and an adverb.

The phrase "...around the lake" is the prepositional phrase that is modifying what is happening here, "the bumpy road jangled the carriage that we drove...". The prepositional phrase is used as an adverbial phrase because the phrase is modifying the verb "drove". The prepositional phrase acting as an adverbial phrase is giving the description of where the "driven carriage" is. This is true because adverbial phrases actually modify verbs, adjectives or even adverbs in a sentence.
