Choose the correct indirect (reported) speech for: She said, “I like this book.”

Explanation

In indirect speech, the demonstrative pronoun ‘this,’ referring to something close to the original speaker, generally changes to ‘that’ when reported from a different point of reference, since the reporter may not be in the same physical or conversational context. The verb ‘like’ also correctly backshifts from the present simple ‘like’ to the past simple ‘liked.’ Explore more English MCQs on mcqstutor to keep practicing.
