      Question

      Choose the option that is the correct indirect form of the

      given sentence. She said to him, "Do you know the way to the station?"
      A She told him if he knows the way to the station. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B She asked him if he knows the way to the station. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C She said him if he knew the way to the station. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D She asked him if he knew the way to the station. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      In indirect speech, the quotation marks are removed. The reporting verb "said" changes to "asked" because it's a question. The pronoun "you" becomes "he" to reflect the change from direct to indirect speech. The verb "do you know" changes to "if he knew" as the direct speech is a question and the verb shifts from present to past tense.
