Question

read the sentence.
the crowd poured into the stadium to watch the final game of the series between the home team and its rival.
what is the function of the phrase into the stadium in the sentence?
○ it is an adjective phrase modifying crowd.
○ it is an adverb phrase modifying watch.
○ it is an adverb phrase modifying poured.
○ it is an adjective phrase modifying game.

Explanation:

The phrase "into the stadium" describes where the crowd "poured", so it acts as an adverb phrase modifying the verb "poured". Adjective phrases modify nouns, which this does not do, and it does not relate to the verbs "watch" or the noun "game".

Answer:

It is an adverb phrase modifying poured.
