Detailed Solution

  • A phrase refers to a word or group of words containing a noun and performing the function of a subject matter, object, or object in an exceeding sentence.
    Let us take a glance at the given options.
  • Option ‘B’, thieves, is wrong because it could be a noun and not a phrase.
  • Option ‘C’, have fled, is wrong because the word ‘have’ could be a verb and hence it's a predicate.
  • Option ‘D’, with the jewels, is wrong because it contains a preposition, ‘with’ and is hence a phrase.
    So, the proper answer is option ‘A’, both the thieves, because it contains a noun ‘thieves’ and a quantifier ‘both’ that's accustomed modify the given noun.

Hence, option A is the correct answer.
