Well, this sentence is a real zinger! It looks like we have a misplaced modifier here. To fix it up, we need to make sure that the rain is the one doing the beginning. So, option B) After Mira worked on the yard for three hours, it began to rain, is the way to go. Now that's what I call a rainmaker!
