Answer:

1) The players said that their captain had injured himself badly.

2) The doctor told the patient not to smoke anymore.

3) My friend proposed to me that we should meet the captain.

4) The mother said that the rain would soon stop and that we could go out to play.

5) The man asked the policewoman if she could show him the way to the station.

Explanation:

There are two ways to relay someone's words:

  • Direct (quoted) speech - the words are quoted exactly as they are spoken. It's always used with quotation marks.
  • Indirect (reported) speech - the words are relayed without being explicitly quoted.

You can see some examples that could help you with the conversion of direct speech into indirect speech below. An important thing to be careful about are the tenses, as they often change in indirect speech.

Need help please ASAP...it's due today....Write a short story about a squirrel trying to find a nut. Use examples of personifica
umka21 [38]

Answer:

It was a beautiful autumn day. The trees whispered in a crisp, cool breeze, their gold and red leaves on display. The river babbled nonstop, gushing by at a somewhat alarming rate. The still scent of early snow hung threateningly in the air. In the midst of it all, one of the smallest mammals found herself panicking in a rush to find food before a heavy layer of snow blanketed the ground tonight. The fluffy-tailed, brown-coated squirrel frantically clawed up clumps of dirt, rooting through the thick undergrowth. She had searched nearly half the area around her home, when suddenly...a snowflake landed on her nose. She cried out in dismay, sobbing as she desperately tore up the ground. Seconds passed. Minutes. Hours. The moon had awoken from its deep slumber, winking at the world as clouds passed over it. Her paws had grown numb and she could barely see past her own nose, the snow falling quicker and quicker around her. It showed the promise of a blizzard. A starving wolf howled in the distance, wondering where all the deer went. The squirrel paid him no mind, attempting to retrace her tracks back to her home. She didn't hear the pounding paws rushing toward her, muffled by the flurrying snow. She didn't notice the shadow suddenly blanketing her. She didn't notice the icy breath freezing in the air around her.

And it was too late.

Answer:

" ... Why to a public count I might not go. Is the great love the general gender bear him. Who, dipping all his faults in their affection ... "

Not verbatim, but that part is the answer. I got it correct on Plato, if you're concerned about that.
