Correct option is B

The correct answer is option (b).
Error Explanation:
· The phrase "to fall into" is incorrect because the verb "escape" is always followed by a gerund (verb + ing) and not an infinitive (to + verb).
· The correct phrase should be "escaped falling into" instead of "escaped to fall into".
Correct Sentence: "She narrowly escaped falling into the deep trench near the cliff’s edge."
