Select the option that expresses the given sentence in direct voice. My mother lovingly asked me if I was going to the party that night.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The original sentence in indirect speech is: "My mother lovingly asked me if I was going to the party that night."
To convert it to direct speech, we need to consider the following changes:
The reporting verb "asked" is used, indicating a question.
The conjunction "if" is removed, and the question is placed within quotation marks.
The past continuous tense "was going" in indirect speech changes back to the present continuous tense "are you going" in direct speech.
The time expression "that night" changes back to "tonight".
The adverb "lovingly" can be included in the reporting clause or implied by context.
Option A correctly applies these changes.
