The correct answer is were.
Since English grammar has this thing called the sequence of tenses, which means that if the first verb in the sentence is in the past tense, all following verbs will have to be in the past tense as well.
So here, the first verb is <em>knew, </em>which is the past simple tense of the verb <em>to know, </em>which means that the following verb <em>to be </em>also has to be given in the past. The past simple form of the verb <em>to be </em>for plural is WERE.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Admit that they lost the bet

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

  • admit that they lost the bet
  • bet more money on Smiley's dog
  • grab Smiley's dog and tie it up
  • try to help the other dog beat Smiley's dog

An idiom is a phrase that has a figurative, non-literal meaning. We can't conclude what this type of phrase means based on the meanings of individual words that make it up. Here, we have the idiom <em>throw up the sponge</em>. No one is literally throwing up sponges. This phrase means<em> </em><em>to give up a contest </em>or <em>to acknowledge defeat</em>.

Based on this information, we can conclude that the dogs are fighting until the people who own them admit that they lost the bet.
