We are provided with an incomplete sentence that requires to be completed by using appropriate words from the options given below. The words that will be used to fill the gaps in the sentence will be option a) were chatting / were running.

• This is an an example of a sentence which is written in past continuous tense.
• The word " while" is used in the sentence which shows that the two events , namely, "the girls chatting" and the " boys running" were happing in the same time.
• The past continuous tense, also called as the past progressive tense, refers to a ongoing action or state that was happening at some point of time in the past. The past continuous tense is shaped by combination of the past tense of to be (i.e., was/were) with the verb’s present participle (-ing word).

Hence, with the use of the appropriate words the full sentence would read as "The girls were chatting while the boys were running around the garden.
