I helped my younger brother build a sand castle at the beach.

My brother dug a giant hole using only a small pail and shovel.

After we built a sand castle, we jumped into the ocean for a swim.

At high tide, our sand castle was washed away by the waves.

The answer to this question is I helped my younger brother build a sand castle at the beach.

Explanation:

A phrase contains two or more words that are part of an idea or sentence. However, a phrase differs from a clause or a complete sentence because it does not contain a subject and a verb. This occurs only in the sentence "I helped my younger brother build a sand castle at the beach" because the underlined section contains a preposition and its object but not a noun and a verb. Also, this section is part of a complete sentence. Moreover other underlined sections such as "we jumped" o "my brother dug" are not phrases because these include a subject and a verb.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
