1. She said, “When I was a child, I wasn’t afraid of ghosts.”
Answer: B
Explanation: Option ‘B’. Direct speech को Indirect Speech में बदलते समय Past Simple Tense और Past Continuous क्रमश: Past Perfect Tense और Past Perfect Continuous Tense में बदल जाते हैं; परन्तु Direct Speech के वे clause जो किसी time का बोध कराते हैं (time clauses) उनमें यदि Past Simple Tense अथवा Past Continuous Tense हो तो वे नहीं बदलते. और जो दूसरा clause है (main clause) उसका tense हम या तो Past Perfect Tense में बदल भी सकते हैं और नहीं भी; ये हमारी मर्जी पर निर्भर होता है; जैसे
Direct Speech के दिए हुए sentence में WHEN I WAS A CHILD किसी time का बोध कराता है; अतः ये एक time clause है, अतः इस clause की verb WAS का tense नहीं बदला जाएगा. और I WASN’T AFRAID OF GOSTS इसका main clause है; अतः इसकी verb WASN’T का tense बदला भी जा सकता है और नहीं भी. इसलिए Direct Speech के sentence की एक अन्य संभव Indirect Speech:
She said that when she was a child she hadn’t been afraid of ghosts.
2. Renu said, “You ought to read the instructions.”

5. I said to my friend, “Good morning! Let’s go for a picnic today.”
Answer: A
Explanation: Option ‘A’. देखिये LET’S (LET US) को Indirect Speech में कैसे बदला जाता है:
LET’s (LET US) को आमतौर पर कोई सुझाव (suggestion) देने के लिए use किया जाता है; इसका use जब कोई suggestion देने के लिए किया जाता है तो हम इसको इस प्रकार से बदलते हैं:
Suggest + Gerund (ing form)
अथवा
Suggest + Possessive Adjective (my, his, their, etc) + Gerund
अथवा
Suggest That + Subject + V1 without S/ES (present Subjunctive)
अथवा
Suggest That + Subject + Should
अथवा
Suggested That + Subject + V2
अथवा
Suggested That + Subject + Should
अथवा
Suggest To + Object + That
अथवा
Suggest + Noun/Pronoun
कुछ उदाहरण
a) He said, “Let’s leave the case at the station.”
= He suggested leaving the case at the station.
= He suggested our leaving the case at the station.
= He suggested that we should leave the case at the station.
b) She said to me, “Let’s have a meeting.”
= She suggested having a meeting.
= She suggested our having a meeting.
= She suggested a meeting.
= She suggested that we should have a meeting.
= She suggested to me that we should have a meeting.
c) He said, “Let’s stop now and finish it later.”
= He suggested stopping then and finishing it later.
= He suggested that we should stop then and finish it later.
= He suggested they shouldn’t say anything till they heard the facts.
d) He said, “Let’s not say anything about it till we hear the facts.”
= He suggested not saying anything about it till they heard the facts.
= He suggested saying nothing about it till they heard the facts.
e) “Let’s go to the cinema,” said Ved. “Yes, let’s” I said.
= Ved suggested going to the cinema and I agreed.
NOTE-I: ‘LET’S NOT + VERB’ को इस प्रकार से बदला जा सकता है:
He was against saying anything about it till they heard the facts.
NOTE-II: लेकिन ‘LET’S NOT’ का use जब किसी सकारात्मक सुझाव (affirmative suggestion) के answer के रूप में अकेले में किया जाता है तो इसको इस तरह से बदला जाता है: OPPOSED THE IDEA अथवा WAS AGAINST, आदि; जैसे
“Let’s sell the house.” said Ram. “Let’s not.” said Ritu.
= Ram suggested selling the house but Ritu was against it/the idea.
= Ram suggested selling the house but Ritu opposed the idea.
= Ram suggested selling the house but Ritu was opposed to the idea
NOTE-III: LET’S (LET US)का use कभी-कभी किसी को कोई कार्यवाही करने के लिए उकसाना/जोश भरना होता है (a call to an action); ऐसे में इसको आमतौर पर इस प्रकार बदला जाता है: Urge/Advice + Object + To-infinitive; e.g.
The strike leader said, “Let’s show the bosses that we are united.”
= The strike leader urged the workers to show the bosses that they were united
6. He said, “Suresh slipped when he was trying to board a bus.”
Answer: C
Explanation: Option ‘C’. Option ‘A’ अशुद्ध है क्योंक TOLD के साथ किसी object का होना जरूरी होता है, परन्तु इसमें इसके साथ कोई object नहीं दिया गया है. Option ‘B’ भी अशुद्ध है क्योंकि यदि verb INFORM के बाद कोई THAT-CLAUSE हो तो इस verb के साथ किसी न किसी object का होना जरूरी होता है. Option ‘D’ इसलिए अशुद्ध है क्योंकि time clauses में यदि Past simple Tense अथवा Past Continuous Tense हो तो उसमे कोई बदलाव नहीं होता. Clause ‘When he was trying to board a bus’ एक time clause है क्योंकि ये एक time का बोध कराता है.
7. She said, “Whatever Saraj does displeases her mother- in-law”
Answer: A
Explanation: Option ‘A’. Direct Speech के दिए गये वाक्य में हमें 2 अलग-अलग verb दी गयी हैं; DOES और DESPLEASES. ये दोनों ही verb main verbs हैं. DOES यहाँ कोई helping verb नहीं है. Direct Speech के वाक्य का हिंदी अनुवाद: सरज जो भी करता है वह उसकी mother-in-law को नाखुश कर देता है. इन दोनों ही verbs का tense Present Simple Tense है; अतः ये दोनों ही Past Simple Tense में बदली जायेंगी. Indirect Speech के वाक्य का हिंदी अनुवाद: सरज ने जो भी किया उस से उसकी mother-in-law नाखुश हो गयीं.
8. He said, “How cruel of him!”
Answer: A
9. You said, “My parents never liked my accepting any job but I had always wanted to stand on my own feet.”
Answer: A
Explanation: Option ‘A’. दूसरे clause की verb का tense यदि Past Perfect Tense हो तो पहले वाली verb का tense change नहीं होता अगर उसका tense Past Simple Tense हो; अतः पहले वाले clause की verb LIKED में कोई बदलाव नहीं होगा. Option ‘D’ अशुद्ध है क्योंकि verb TOLD के साथ किसी ना किसी object का होना आवश्यक होता है.
10. The Prime Minister said, “We should be united to fight the enemy tooth and nail.”
Answer: B
Explanation: Option ‘B’. Option ‘A’ अशुद्ध है क्योंकि Direct Speech में दिया गया वाक्य कोई request नहीं है. यहाँ pronoun WE को बदलने कि कोई आवश्यकता नहीं है क्योंकि subject Prime Minister pronoun WE में ही सम्मिलित है. FIGHT TOOTH AND NAIL = जो हमें चाहिए उसको पाने के लिए जी-तोड़ प्रयास करना; जैसे
We fought tooth and nail to get the route of the new road changed.
