1 dented: This is correct. As we saw in the previous scene, "to dent" is to make a hole or hollow in a surface. Example: Don't sit on the car - you might DENT the bonnet! In the letter, Bruno writes that he dented his "lucky" nickel coin when he fell out of his chair.
1 smashed: Usually, the verb "to smash" is reserved for fragile objects (like glass or ceramics) that can be broken into small pieces. Example: I dropped the box and SMASHED all the wine glasses. A car door is made of metal therefore it is quite robust and difficult "to smash". Note: It is possible to "smash into (something)", meaning to hit something with great force or violence. Example: The two cars SMASHED INTO each other.
1 scratched: This is incorrect. "To scratch" means to damage a surface by making a mark in it. This verb would not be used to describe the creation of a large hole or hollow.
1 mended: This is incorrect. "To mend" means to repair damage - not create damage!
2 scratched: This is correct. In this context, "to scratch" means to damage a surface by making a mark in it. Example: I SCRATCHED the table when I cut vegetables upon it. In the exercise, Brian uses keys to scratch the paintwork on Jackson Bollocks' car.
2 smashed: This is incorrect. "To smash" means to break to pieces with violence, often with large crashing sound. This verb would not be used to describe the creation of a superficial mark in a surface.

2 mended: This is incorrect. "To mend" means to repair damage - not create damage!
3 smashed: As seen in a previous scene, "to smash" means to break to pieces with violence, often with large crashing sound. Example: Jackson Bollocks SMASHED the glass statue on the floor. In the email, Bruno writes that he "smashed (his) designer sunglasses" when he fell out of his chair.
3 dented: This is incorrect. "To dent" is to make a hole or hollow in a surface, usually of a metallic. It is difficult to dent glass because it is too brittle and breaks into pieces - especially when hit by a baseball bat.
3 scratched: This is incorrect. It is possible to scratch glass, to make a mark in the surface with a sharp knife for example. However, A baseball bat is too big to make a scratch, and certainly does more than damage the surface.
3 mended: This is incorrect. "To mend" means to repair damage - not create damage!
4 mended: "To mend" means to "repair" or "put together" something that is damaged, broken, or not functioning. For example: I've decided to MEND the hole in my jeans - it will be cheaper than buying a new pair.
