Well, the first thing you should know is what a participle phrase is: The participial phrase is always used as an adjective phrase to modify a noun or pronoun. It includes the participle together with its modifiers, objects, or predicate words. The present participle form always ends in -ing, but the endings for past perfect and passive perfect participles may vary. A good example of a participle phrase is Walking rapidly, we reached the town in fifteen minutes. "Walking rapidly" is the good usage of it in this sentence. You got the right answer, so good job! I hope this also may help anyone understand what it is, and how it can be identified.
