First and second person pronouns must be changed to third person pronouns.
Dean saidthat he didn’t know what to do.
(The word ‘that’ can often be left out: Dean said he didn’t know what to do.)
3. Indirect Questions
Direct question: “Did Marama’s horse win a prize?” Owen asked.
Indirect questions: Owen asked whether (or if) Marama’s horse had won a prize.
Direct question: “Why won’t you marry me?” asked Donald.
Indirect question: Donald asked her why she wouldn’t marry him.
In telling a story or recounting events, a speaker using direct speech has all the resources of intonation to produce a lively account. Because indirect speech is always speech reported by someone else, the account is more reserved and restrained.
“What shall we do?” asked Bev.
“Don’t worry, Bev,” said Duncan, “I’ve got a plan.”
Bev asked Duncan what they should do. He told her not to worry and that he had got a plan.
The ability to change direct speech into indirect speech is a useful skill for those engaged in taking the minutes of a meeting or reporting on events.
Direct speech: “First of all, I would like to thank everybody who helped with the fair. The results were very good, and we will now be able to buy two more computers.”
Indirect speech: The principal said that he would like to thank everybody who had helped with the fair. He announced that the results were very good and that the school would now be able to buy two more computers.

Procedures I. Warming up1. Read the letter to Miss Wang and find out what was upsetting Lisa.
2. Listen to what Miss Wang says, and then answer the questions in Exercise 2.
3. Listen to the tape again and try to spell out the missing words in Ex 3.
II. Talking about designing a questionnaireWork in groups of four. Design a questionnaire to find out what kind of friends your classmates are. Ask the Students to use the quiz in the Warming Up as an example.
Note: The students should be talking while they are doing the task. This provides the students with the opportunity to practise expressing thought and concern in matters of immediate concern and interest. Tell the students to follow these steps:
Step1: In your group, come up with four situations among friends. Design four questions accordingly with three possible answers.
Step2: Put the four questions together and form a questionnaire.
Step3: Check the questionnaire through and try it out on your own group.
Step4: Share your questionnaire with another group and try each other’s questionnaires.
Sample questionnaire:
This questionnaire has four questions, and each question is followed by a set of possible answers. Please read the questions, and then consider which response fits you best.
