What does the reported use of the words "dead men don't bite" in these lines suggest about the character Billy?

English

The line itself is saying that killing someone will make sure they can't hurt you, since dead men don't bite. That makes Billy's character seem like he led a rough life which is what I would answer with. He is not jovial, because that means cheerful, and the line doesn't give indication that all of Billy's friends are dead or that he doesn't like to think of the future, so I'd say answer A.

"Manu asked Anna what time the train arrived. Anna replied that she thought the train would be on time." This question refers to the use of reported speech.

<h3>What is reported speech?</h3>

Reported speech is the structure we use when telling others what was said by someone. Instead of using that person's exact words, we modify their speech and use our own words.

When converting direct speech to reported speech, some simple steps can be very helpful:

  • Use verbs such as "say", "tell", "ask", "inquire", "answer", "reply", etc. to indicate the manner in which something was spoken.
  • Change the pronouns according to the situation. For example, if it is a man speaking, the pronoun "I" becomes "he".
  • Change words that indicate time or location if necessary. For instance: here → there; today → that day; tomorrow → the next day; etc.
  • Change the verb tenses to their respective pasts. For example: simple present → simple past; present perfect → past perfect; will → would.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is an exceptional book published on 16 October 1950. The story is about four children who are taken out of London to avoid the Blitz and went to live with a professor in his large house. Living there, they discovered a wardrobe that led to a secret passageway to Narnia.

Similarly, in 1941 children were taken out of East London to escape the effects of World War II. These children came from different families and consolidated with one another in times of need.

 

The theme of the book and real-life events has striking similarities. The children in the book bond with another world to escape the realities of life while, the wartime children made friendships with each other to ease their frustration.
