直接引语变间接引语的注意事项

1. 直接引语是客观事实、永恒真理，变成间接引语时，时态不变。例如：

They told their son “The earth goes round the sun.”

They told their son that the earth goes round the sun. 2. 直接引语变间接引语时，

指示代词、时间、地点状语作相应的变化。例如：

this—that , these—those, now—then, today—that day,

yesterday—the day before, last year---the year before, ago—before, here---there

3. 直接引语是复合句，以since, when, while 引导的状语从句，变成间接引语时，只改变主句的时态，不改变从句的时态。例如：

He said,“Jim is doing his homework when his father came in.”

He said that Jim was doing his homework when his father came in. 4. 间接引语一定要用陈述句的语序，即主、谓、宾的顺序。例如：

They asked,“ Where are you from?”

They asked where you were from.
