If the verb in the independent clause is in the present tense, the tense that the verb in the indirect quotation should be is <span>remain in its original tense. 
</span>You don't have to shift tenses because it is present in the independent one.
For example:
He says: "I need to wash my hair."
He says that he needs to wash his hair.
You wouldn't say - he says that he needed to wash his hair.

Which excerpt from Barrio Boy, shows the author expressing his feelings about his child hood
MrRa [10]

Answer:

In Barrio Boy, the author expressed his feelings about his childhood in the below excerpt:

"During the next few weeks Miss Ryan overcame my fears of tall, energetic teachers as she bent over my desk to help me with a word in the pre-primer. Step by step, she loosened me and my classmates from the safe anchorage of the desks for recitations at the black board and consultations at her desk."

This reveals that during his childhood days, he had fears as a first grader which could have hindered him from learning English Language, being bold and from blending with other children from other nationalities.

Explanation:

Ernesto Galarzo, in Barrio Boy wrote about his experiences right from childhood when his family migrated from Mexico to America. He further reveals the struggles which he faced trying to adapt to life in America. The story centers on a dramatic autobiography of the process of a boy from a Mexican village to a somewhat hectic and complex life.

Galarzo was a Mexican-American writer, storyteller, poet and activist.

2. Without ceasing, she gripped her controller in her hands and dominated her video games all day long. - C) Mature writing because there is a good hse of formal words, and does not overuse unnecessary vocabulary.

3. For what had the quality of time interminable, she toiled merrily at her digital amusement. - A) Overuse of thesaurus because even thought there aren't many words, the words or too trival and unnecessary, seems as if a college student wrote it.
