1. The prepositional phrase in the sentence "The family drove to the store" is "to the store" (option d). To find the prepositional phrase, you need to identify the preposition (in this case, "to") and the noun or pronoun that follows it (in this case, "the store").

2. The appositive phrase in the sentence "My mother, Rebecca, loves to eat pumpkin pie" is "Rebecca" (option a). An appositive is a word or phrase that renames or identifies another noun or pronoun. In this case, "Rebecca" renames "my mother."

3. The appositive in the sentence "The president, an elected official of the United States, serves a four-year term" is "an elected official of the United States" (option d). Again, an appositive renames or identifies another noun or pronoun, and in this case, "an elected official of the United States" renames "the president."

4. The sentence that combines the two sentences using a past participle is "Softened by his ghostly visitors, Scrooge changed for the better" (option b). A past participle is a verb form that typically ends in "-ed" or "-en" and can function as an adjective. In this case, the past participle "softened" is used to describe Scrooge and is combined with the sentence by using a participial phrase.
