h. he was feeling really hungry.
Activity 14Can you think of some examples?
If the reporting verbs SAY and TELL are in the Simple Past, tense changes are not always needed. There are three cases where they are optional.
1. When the statement refers to something just said:
______________________________________________________________________
2. When the statement refers to something that is still true. _____________________________________________________________________
3. When the statement refers to a scientific or general truth._____________________________________________________________________
When the reporting verb is in the Simple Present, there is no tense change in indirect speech.
Activity 15Let’s report themChange the following statements into indirect speech.
1. My mother used to tell me, “You have to do what you love in life.”2. Fiona always says, “You need to drink two liters of water every day.”3. The teacher told her students, “Thanksgiving Day is on the fourth
Thursday of November.”4. Her husband said, “The weather will get worse tomorrow.”5. The father always tells his children, “You can go to play outside when
you finish your homework.”6. Tina said, “I have just finished the report.”7. My neighbors told me, “We are moving to Peru next month.”8. Hughes is on the phone and he says, “You are invited to the party
