Answer:

Replacing a Punctured Rear Inner Tube–The Easy Way!

The correct use of inverted commas:

1. Tim: "Now, we’re assuming the damage to the tyre has been caused by a thorn or small nail, something like that."

2. Kim: "Yes, that’s right– something small which doesn’t require you to fit a whole new tyre."

3. Tim: "OK. So, the first thing you need is to get your tools ready.  You’ll need a new Inner tube, of course, plus pump, a set of spanners, a pair of tyre levers or strong spoons, and a couple of different sized flathead screwdrivers.

Do ensure before you start that the new tube is the same size as the old one, or all manner of problems may arise!"

Explanation:

In writing, inverted commas surround a speaker's speech to mark when the speeches begin and when they end.  If another speaker starts a written speech, a different set of inverted commas are used.  If the speech is continued by one speaker without any reporting, there is no need to use inverted commas until the end.  For example, sentence 2 above should end with an inverted comma. Sentence 3 does not require the three inverted commas within the speech.
