In most cases, verbs are the ones being modified.
In this case, the verb “to elate” is modified to the past tense: elated. B would be the correct answer.
The other 3 words will stay unchanged even if you change the meaning of the sentence: “Mr. Presnell will be elated about the good news,” etc.

Elated, because it is modified from ‘elate’ to the past tense of ‘elated’.
I am like 80% certain.
Hope this helped.
