Answer 1

The correct answer is the second choice.
A isn't correct because it should be 'dress and act,' and not 'dresses and acts.' C is incorrect because you don't have to use 'would dress and act,' because it is the wrong use of that tense. D is also incorrect because it should be 'dress and act,' instead of 'dressed and acted,' because there is no reason why you should use past tense here. B is the only correct answer given that since the first verb 'studied' is in the past tense, due to the sequence of tenses, verbs 'dressed and acted' also have to be in the past tense.
