Задание 97 · Косвенная речь

Английский язык. 8 класс — Ваулина Ю. Е., Дули Д., Подоляко О. Е, 8 класс

Условие

Переведите в косвенную речь: «He said: "I am busy"»; «She said: "I will call you"»; «Tom said: "I have finished"».

Решение с объяснением

  1. He said that he was busy — Present Simple → Past Simple при согласовании времён
  2. She said that she would call me — will → would, you → me
  3. Tom said that he had finished — Present Perfect → Past Perfect

Правило согласования времён: если главный глагол в прошедшем, время в придаточном «сдвигается» на шаг назад.

Ответ: He said that he was busy; She said that she would call me; Tom said that he had finished
