(1)直接引语在改为间接引语时,时态需要做相应的调整。

eg: “I broke your CD player.” (一般过去时改成过去完成时)

He told me he had broken my CD player.

Jenny said, “I have lost a book.”

(现在完成时改成过去完成时)

Jenny said she had lost a book.

Mum said, “I’ll go to see a friend.”

(一般将来时改成过去将来时)

Mum said she would go to see a friend.

过去完成时保留原有的时态

He said, “We hadn’t finished our homework.”

He said they hadn’t finished their homework.

注意 直接引语是客观真理,过去进行时,时态不变。

(2)在直接引语变间接引语时,如果从句中的主语时第一人称或被第一人称所修饰,从句中的人称要按照主句中主语的人称变化。如:

Mary said, “My brother is an engineer.”

Mary said her brother was and engineer.

(3)直接引语如果是反意疑问句,选择疑问句或一般疑问句,间接引语应改为由whether或if引导的宾语从句。如:

He said, “Can you run, Mike?”

He asked Mike whether/if he could run.

(4)直接引语如果是祈使句,间接引语应改为“tell(ask, order, beg等) (not) to do sth.”句型。如:

“Pass me the water, please.”said he.

He asked him to pass her the water.

(5)直接引语如果是以“Let’s”开头的祈使句,变为间接引语时,通常用“suggest+动名词或从句”的结构。如:

She said, “Let’s go to the cinema.”

She suggested going to the cinema.

或She suggested that they should go to the cinema.
