Answer (2)

The correct answer is B. Sally has a new blue bedspread.
Why not the other ones? A. The table was delivered in two, cardboard boxes. - this sentence should not have a coma between 'two' and 'cardboard' C. It is, an octagonal, wooden table. - we don't put a comma after verb - in this case after 'is' D. The old, and dusty table had cracked broken legs. - there is no need to put a comma before a conjunction word (i this case - and)
