例:Mr. Black said, “ I’m busy.”

变化规则
1. 陈述句的变化规则
直接引语如果是陈述句,变为间接引语时,用连词that(可省略)引导,从句中的人称、时态、指示代词、时间状语、地点状语都要发生相应的变化。
(1)人称的变化——人称的变化主要是要理解句子的意思
例:1. He said, “ I like it very much.” → He said that he liked it very much.
2. He said to me, “I'v left my book in your room.”
→ He told me that he had left his book in my room.

→Anne said that she didn’t want to set down a series of facts in a diary.

→ The boy said that he was using a knife.
▲注意:如果直接引语是客观真理,变为间接引语时,时态不变,如:
He said, “Light travels much faster than sound.”
He said that light travels much faster than sound.
(3)指示代词、时间状语、地点状语和动词的变化
2. 疑问句的变化规则
如果直接引语是疑问句,变为间接引语时要把疑问句语序变为陈述句语序,句末用句号。
(1)一般疑问句:如果直接引语是一般疑问句,变为间接引语时,谓语动词是say或said时,要改为 ask 或asked,原问句变为由if/whether 引导的宾语从句。
例:“Do you think a diary can become your friend?” the writer says.
→ The writer asks us if we think a diary can become our friend.
(2)特殊疑问句:如果间接引语是特殊疑问句,变为间接引语时,仍用原来的引导词,但疑问句要变为陈述句。
