    B. Because she smiled at me.

    Explanation:

    Phrase is a group of words which forms a unit in a sentence.

    Phrases are classified into noun phrase, verb phrase, adjective phrase, gerund phrase, infinitive phrase.

    In the following sentence: the lost dog was found by the police.

    Was lost is a verb phrase

    By the police is a prepositional phrase.

    Option B is not a phrase, rather it is a clause because it has connector, subject and verb.
