1 Tight: This is correct. In the context of clothing, garments are considered "loose" or "tight" depending on how much room there is for the body inside them. Example: "His shirt was so tight, you see the hairs on his chest."
1 Basic: This is incorrect. "Basic" means primary or simple, and isn't the opposite of "loose". The opposite of basic might be "complex", "advanced" or "sophisticated".
1 New: This is incorrect. "New" means recent "not existing previously", and isn't the opposite of "loose". The opposite of "new" is generally "old".
1 Formal: This is incorrect. "Formal" means "elegant", "sophisticated" or "fancy". Example: The wedding was very formal: only tuxedos and dinner dresses were worn.The opposite of "formal" is "informal" or "casual".
2 Borrow: This is correct. "To borrow" means to take or receive something with the promise and understanding that it will be returned. "Borrow" is the opposite of "to lend". Example: -Can I borrow your car this weekend? -Sorry, but I don't lend my car to chimpanzees, even if they are capable of human speech.
2 Give: This is incorrect. "To give" is to donate or award something; it isn't an antonym for "lend". A common antonym for "take" is "give".

3 Naked: This is correct. The adjective "clothed" describes someone or something that is "dressed" or "wearing clothes". Other antonyms for "clothed" include "nude", "undressed" and "unclothed".
3 Dressed: This is incorrect. "Dressed" and "clothed" are actually synonyms: words which express the same meaning.
3 Dirty: This is incorrect. "Dirty" means "unclean", "unhygienic" or "unwashed". It is not an antonym of "clothed".
