Answer:

1. He said that he couldn't do that on his own.

2. She asked me if I would like some tea.

3. He told me that he had travelled to many countries.

4. He said he would call a taxi when he finishes writing that email.

5. She asked him why he hadn't come to the party.

6. He told me that he was going to see the new James Bond film.

Explanation:

Reported speech is the act of reporting the words said by someone to another person. This act of relaying the same speech to a third person is known as a reported speech or an indirect speech. It relays the same meaning but without the use of direct words, removing the quotation marks and some changes in the sentence.

In a reporting speech, we use reporting verbs such as told, said, etc. And the verbs are also changed from direct speech to indirect speech according to their requirements and tenses involved, like present tense in direct speech changes to past tense in the reported speech.

The correct indirect or reported speech are as follows-

1. He said that he couldn't do that on his own. (negative "can't" changed to couldn't)

2. She asked me if I would like some tea. (would remain the same in reported speech)

3. He told me that he had traveled to many countries. (have changed to had)

4. He said he would call a taxi when he finishes writing that email. (will is changed to would)

5. She asked him why he hadn't come to the party. (negative "didn't" changed to hadn't)

6. He told me that he was going to see the new James Bond film. (am going changed to was going)
