The sentence that contains both an adjectival phrase and an adverbial phrase is:

"My banged-up old boat can still sail perfectly well through any storm."

  • The adjectival phrase is "banged-up old," which describes the noun "boat."
  • The adverbial phrase is "perfectly well," which describes how the boat can sail.
