Ex.5. Rewrite the questions in reported speech. "Are you hungry?" He asked me _______ . "What are you doing now?" He asked me __
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

He asked me <u>if I was hungry</u>.

He asked me <u>what I was doing</u>.

He asked me <u>when he went to school</u>.

He asked me <u>where I spent my holidays</u>.

He asked me <u>what the time was then</u>.

Explanation:

Reported speech is when we tell someone what another person had told us. This retelling or exchange of information to a third party is given in the reporter form, or in the indirect speech.

The verbs and tenses in the reported speech will be changed according to the tenses in the first speech. So, supposing the initial sentence is in the simple present tense, then the reported speech will be in the simple past tense. Likewise, if the original speech is in the present perfect, then the reporting speech will be in the past perfect tense.

<em>"Are you hungry?" He asked me </em><em><u>if I was hungry</u></em><em>. </em>

<em>"What are you doing now?" He asked me </em><em><u>what I was doing</u></em><em>. </em>

<em>"When does he go to school?" He asked me </em><em><u>when he went to school</u></em><em>. </em>

<em>"Where did you spend your holidays?" He asked me </em><em><u>where I spent my holidays</u></em><em>. </em>

<em>"What time is it now?" He asked me </em><em><u>what the time was then</u></em><em>.</em>

How can gender stereotyping lead to gender discrimination ​
Sedbober [7]
Gender stereotyping is defined as an overgeneralization of characteristics, differences and attributes of a certain group based on their gender. For example: while men who don’t appear or act masculine are called “sissies” or “wimps” or assumed to be gay, which is a very offensive stereotype in the LGBT community.
