1 Complete the reported speech. 8.1

English
1 answer:
Artemon [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

She said she<u> was wearing</u> her sister's jacket.​

Explanation:

Reported speech involves shifting the tense back to the past. In that matter, the Present Continuous turns into Past Continuous in reported speech. Thus, in the sentence given, in direct speech, the verb <em>'m wearing</em> becomes <em>was wearing</em> in reported speech.

Apart from changes in verb tenses, other words such as pronouns, demonstratives and adverb phrases also change in reported speech. For example, <em>my sister</em> is reported as <em>her sister</em>.

tangare [24]

Answer:

It means to disturb "the air." For example, the piercing cries is what the air is being disturbed by, so in general, it was silent when all of a sudden it has become disturbed or interrupted. I think this is a metaphor but I'm not sure.
