Explanation:

• "Tell" is usually used when you are giving information to someone directly, often followed by the person receiving the information (e.g., "told Dave").
• "Say" is generally used when the focus is on the words spoken rather than the person being spoken to, and it often doesn't include the person as a direct object (e.g., "she said").
• "Tell" is often used with expressions like "tell the truth," "tell a story," or "tell a lie."
• "Say" can also be used with expressions like "say something" or "say a word."

In this exercise, you need to pay attention to the context and grammatical structure to determine which verb fits best.
