SSC CGL 2019 PYQ — Question 63

SSC CGL Tier II - English 13th Sep. 19 • English • Q63

Choose the most appropriate option to change the narration (direct/indirect) of the given sentence.
“I will be twenty-five tomorrow”, said Vidushi.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Vidushi said that she would be twenty-five the next day.

As we have to change direct narration into indirect narration we have to follow certain rules.

We have to change the tense of the reported speech into the past tense.

  1. "Will" will be changed into "would".
  2. "Tomorrow" will be changed into "the next day".

As the chosen option contains all the changes it will be correct.
