    She says that she will go to work

    ____________
    A yesterday Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B the previous day Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C today Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D tomorrow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E the next day Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Here, the reporting verb is in the present tense. So, there would not be any change in the tense of the reported speech. However, person and time changes. So, ‘tomorrow’ will change to ‘the next day’. Also, ‘the previous day’ is incorrect because the future of an action is mentioned. She says that she will go to work the next day.
