I apologize for the confusion. Let's clarify the sentences again and find the participial phrase.

A participial phrase typically includes a participle and any modifiers or complements.

In your provided options:

1. **I am hurrying to make sure I make it to class on time.** - No participial phrase.
2. **Climbing to the top of the tower made me feel dizzy.** - "Climbing to the top of the tower" is a gerund phrase, not a participial phrase. My mistake.
3. **The small boy was afraid to jump off the diving board.** - No participial phrase.
4. **Please make sure you are prepared for the meeting.** - "Prepared for the meeting" is a participial phrase.

The correct answer is **"Please make sure you are prepared for the meeting."** Thank you for your patience, and I appreciate your understanding!
