Answer 2

All of the sentences you provided are grammatically correct, but the choice between the options depends on the context and the intended meaning. Here's an explanation of each sentence:

1. She said that she had borrowed that scarf from her friends.

   • This implies that she borrowed a specific scarf (the one being discussed).

2. He told me that he would be there at eight o'clock.

   • "Would" is the more appropriate choice here. It indicates a future action that was planned or intended at the time of speaking.

3. She said that she was making her own clothes.

   • "Was making" is the correct choice as it indicates an ongoing action in the past. She was in the process of making her clothes when she spoke.

4. He said that he had saved enough money for the jeans he wanted.

   • "Had saved" is the correct choice here, as it indicates that the money-saving action (saving money) was completed before the statement was made.

5. She said she couldn't talk then because she was trying on dresses.

   • "Couldn't" is the correct choice because it refers to her inability to talk at that moment. "Was trying" indicates an ongoing action of trying on dresses in the past.
