The traveller inquired, "Will there be a shelter for strangers?”

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. The traveller inquired if there would be a shelter for strangers.

  • As the reported speech is in "Interrogative sentence" we need to make changes according to this.
  • There will be a change in the reporting verb and it will be changed into "Inquired".
  • The inverted comma will be changed into "IF".
  • "Will" should be changed into "Would".
  • The reported speech will be kept in the assertive structure (Subject + verb).

As all the rules are followed by the chosen option it will be correct.
