Explanation: In indirect speech, we report someone's words or thoughts without quoting them directly. To do this, the verbs "ask" and "in the Present Indefinite" should be used. We need to change the pronouns, tenses, and word order accordingly. Let's go through each sentence step by step: 1. Father (to his son): Pass me the sugar, please. - The sentence starts with "Father asked," which is the indirect way of reporting the speech. - We change the pronoun "his" to "me" to indicate that the sugar is being passed to Father. - We keep the verb in the Present Indefinite form, which is "Pass." - We add "please" at the end, as it is part of the original sentence, but it can be omitted in indirect speech. 2. Ann (to her mother): Has Father booked the tickets? - The sentence starts with "Ann asked," indicating indirect speech. - We change the pronoun "her" to "my" to indicate that Ann is referring to her own mother. - We use the verb "has" in the Present Indefinite form, which is "has." - We add "if" before the question, as it is a common structure in indirect speech. 3. Steve (to his elder brother): I shall go to the library. - The sentence starts with "Steve asked," indicating indirect speech. - We keep the pronouns and the verb "shall" in the Present Indefinite form. - We change the word "libra" to "library" to correct the spelling. 4. Kate (to her friend): Do you like my new dress? - The sentence starts with "Kate asked," indicating indirect speech. - We change the pronouns "you" and "my" to "she" and "her," respectively, to refer to Kate's friend. - We keep the verb "like" in the Present Indefinite form. 5. Richard (to his younger brother): Please don't leave the door open. - The sentence starts with "Richard asked," indicating indirect speech. - We change the pronouns and the verb "leave" in the Present Indefinite form. - We include the word "please." 6. Mr. Green (to his friend): Where are you going for your holidays? - The sentence starts with "Mr. Green asked," indicating indirect speech. - We change the pronouns and the verb "are going" in the Present Indefinite form. - We change "yo" to "your" to correct the spelling of "your." - We include the word "for" to maintain the correct meaning of the sentence. 7. Mrs. Brooks (to her husband): I have left my umbrella at home. - The sentence starts with "Mrs. Brooks told," indicating indirect speech. - We keep the pronouns and the verb "have left" in the Present Indefinite form. - We change "embre" to "umbrella" to correct the spelling. 8. Teacher (to her pupils): Who is absent? - The sentence starts with "The teacher asked," indicating indirect speech. - We keep the pronoun and the verb "is" in the Present Indefinite form. 9.
