To solve this type of question, note the following,

• As we have to fill the correct forms of verb, we need to know the tense of the sentence.
• The first sentence has the verb 'stood', which indicates that this paragraph will be in past tense.
• The past form of the verb 'to be' is 'was' and 'were'. As the subject here 'her tresses' is plural, the correct verb will be 'were'.
• The past tense of 'carry' is 'carried'.
• The last blank has 'have, splashed'. So, we have to make the past perfect tense. This will be 'had splashed'.
