过去进行时的直接引语如何改成间接引语
过去进行时的直接引语如何改成间接引语
句子本身是一般过去式
一.把一般过去时变为过去完成时
二.要注意在以下几种情况下.在直接引语变为间接引语时,时态一般不变化.
①直接引语是客观真理.
"The earth moves around the sun and the moon moves around the earth,the teacher told me.→ The teacher told me the earth moves around the sun and the moon moves around the earth.
②直接引语是过去进行时,时态不变.如:
Jack said."John,where were you going when I met you in the street?"→Jack asked John where he was going when he met him in the street.
③直接引语中有具体的过去某年、某月、某日作状语,变为间接引语时,时态不变.如:
Xiao Wang said."I was born on April 2l,1980." →Xiao Wang said he was born on April 20,1980.
④直接引语如果是一般现在时.表示一种反复出现或习惯性的动作,变间接引语,时态不变.如:
He said,"I get up at six every morning." →He said he gets up at six every morning.
⑤如果直接引语中的情态动词没有过去时的形式(例:ought to,had better,used to)和已经是过去时的形式时,(例:could,should,would,might)不再变.如:
Peter said."You had better come have today." →Peter said I had better go there that day.
