(A) Mrs. Applegate said that she doubted whether it would be available.

Sentence A is correct because Mrs. Applegate's words are being paraphrased. Using the word "that" to connect the dialogue tag "Mrs. Applegate said" with "she doubted whether it would be available" indicates to us that what she said is a paraphrase. Also, we can assume Mrs. Applegate would not be talking about herself in the third person by using the pronoun "she". This is a further indication that her exact words were NOT "that she doubted it would be available."

If Mrs. Applegate had actually said "that she doubted it would be available." The correctly punctuated sentence is D. There is a comma after the dialogue tag. The first word of the dialogue should be capitalized, and the entire dialogue must be in quotations, including the period at the end of the sentence.

3. The dog is walked by Mike everyday.

4. Every competition is won by Michael.

5. New things were invented years ago by people.

8. His money was kept in a safe place by him for a long time.

9. News shoes are bought by my brother every year.

10. Delicious candies were sold by Mark in his store.

Explanation:

The use of the "by" agent in sentence construction is also known as the passive voice of sentence writing. The passive voice is a grammatical voice construction where the person or thing on which the action/ verb is acted on comes first in the sentence. An active voice starts the sentence with the doer of the action while the passive voice starts the sentence with the receiver of the action. And in the passive voice, the subject-verb agreement will be according to the tense of the original sentence.

Thus, the new sentences with the "by" agent are as follows-

1. Linda is taken to school everyday by him.

2. The shops were not closed last Saturday by them.

3. The dog is walked by Mike everyday.

4. Every competition is won by Michael.

5. New things were invented years ago by people.

6. The breakfast is prepared by my mother everyday.

7. School uniforms were not worn by us in this school.

8. His money was kept in a safe place by him for a long time.

9. News shoes are bought by my brother every year.

10. Delicious candies were sold by Mark in his store.
