Select the option that expresses the given sentence in indirect voice.
He says, 'I am building a model ship in my spare time.'
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
In indirect speech, when the reporting verb (here, 'says') is in the present tense, the tense of the verb in the reported speech (here, 'am building') does not change. The pronoun 'I' changes to 'he' to match the subject of the reporting verb, and 'my' changes to 'his' accordingly.
The correct conversion:
He says that he is building a model ship in his spare time.
