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

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

In this sentence, "banged-up old" acts as an adjectival phrase describing the noun "boat," and "perfectly well" serves as an adverbial phrase modifying the verb "sail."
