Use 'that' in positive sentences for reported speech.

1. “ I will phone this evening”, she said.

2. “What have you bought for me?", Sally asked Tom.

3. “Don’t press the button”, my sister said.

1. She said that she would phone that evening.
Explanation: When reporting speech, we use the reporting verb "said" followed by the conjunction "that" to introduce the reported speech. Since the original sentence is in the future tense ("I will phone this evening"), we change the verb "will" to "would" in reported speech to indicate the change in time reference.

2. Sally asked Tom what he had bought for her.
Explanation: Sally asked Tom a question, so we use the reporting verb "asked" followed by the indirect question word "what" to introduce the reported speech. Since the original question is in the past tense ("What have you bought for me?"), we change the verb "have" to "had" in reported speech to indicate the change in time reference.

3. My sister said not to press the button.
Explanation: In this sentence, the imperative form "Don't press the button" is used. In reported speech, we use the reporting verb "said" followed by the negative form of the imperative verb without the word "to." Therefore, the reported speech becomes "My sister said not to press the button."
