Direction for:-In the following section the sentences have been given in Direct or Indirect speech. From the given alternatives, choose the most appropriate sentence that best suits the given sentence in Indirect or Direct speech.
I reiterated, “I don’t care about the job.”
I reiterated that I did not care about the job.
I said again and again I didn't care about the job.
I repeatedly said that I cared about the job.
I reiterated I didn't care about the job
- The given direct speech sentence is: "I reiterated, 'I don’t care about the job.'"
- Option 1: I reiterated that I did not care about the job.
- This option correctly translates the direct speech into reported speech.
- It changes present tense "don’t care" to past tense "did not care," aligning with the indirect speech rules.
- Correct Answer
- Option 2: I said again and again I didn't care about the job.
- This alters the original meaning by adding "again and again," which implies repetition not indicated in the original statement.
- Option 3: I repeatedly said that I cared about the job.
- This changes the meaning by stating the opposite sentiment ("cared" instead of "did not care").
- Option 4: I reiterated I didn't care about the job.
- This option is more informal and lacks the conjunction "that," which is standard in indirect speech. So, Option 1 is more appropriate.
