The correct answer is ☀ D and E only.
* **Phrasal verbs:** These are verbs formed by a verb and a preposition or adverb (or sometimes both) that combine to create a new meaning.
* **Option A: Enabled her** - "Enabled" is a single verb, not a phrasal verb.
* **Option B: Proper upbringing** - This is a noun phrase, not a verb.
* **Option C: Multiple obstacles** - This is a noun phrase, not a verb.
* **Option D: Pass through** - This is a phrasal verb meaning "to go or move from one place to another through or across something."
* **Option E: Set in store** - This is a phrasal verb meaning "to have something prepared for someone in the future."
Therefore, only "pass through" and "set in store" are phrasal verbs in the sentence.
