SSC CHSL 2025 PYQ — Question 12

SSC CHSL - 29 Nov 2025 - Shift 1 • English • Q12

Choose the correct indirect narration of the following statement from the given alternatives:
Snigdha said, "What a beautiful day today is!"

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

When converting an exclamatory sentence like "What a beautiful day today is!" into indirect speech, the reporting verb "said" changes to "exclaimed". The exclamatory phrase is turned into an assertive sentence, and "today" changes to "that day".

Therefore, option ‘D’ correctly transforms the sentence structure and tenses while keeping the original meaning.
