  引述别人的话时,一般采用两种方式:一是引用别人的原话,把它放在引号内,称为直接引语;二是用自己的话加以转述,被转述的话不放在引号内,称为间接引语。间接引语在大多数情况下是一个宾语从句。直接引语变成间接引语时,要注意以下几点:人称变化、时态变化、宾语从句要用陈述句语序等。
  1. 直接引语是陈述句,变成间接引语时,由连词that 引导。例如:
  She said, “I am very happy to be with you.” →She said (that) she was very happy to be with me.
  He said,“I will choose a book for my students.” →He said(that)he would choose a book for his students.
  2. 直接引语是一般疑问句时,变成间接引语,由连词whether或if 引导。例如:
  He asked me, “Do you like watching TV?”→He asked me if/whether I liked watching TV.
  He asked, “Are you sure your mother will come?”→He asked me whether / if I was sure my mother would come.
  注意:大多数情况下, if和whether 在引导宾语从句时可以互换,但后紧跟or not时,一般只用whether。例如:
  She asked me whether or not he could do the work. / She asked me whether he could do the work or not.
  3. 直接引语是特殊疑问句,变成间接引语时,由相应的连接词who, whom, what, whose, how, when, why, where 等引导。例如:
  He asked: “Where are you to get off, John?” →He asked John where he was to get off.
  My sister asked me, “How do you like the play?”→My sister asked me how I liked the play.
  Tom asked me, “Who is the boy over there?”→Tom asked me, “Who was the boy over there?”
  4. 直接引语是祈使句,其间接引语由主语+动词ask(委婉语气),tell(一般语气),order (命令语气)或warn, advise等+复合宾语(名/代词+动词不定式)构成。如:
  He said, “Please come here again tomorrow.”→He asked me to go there again the next day.
  “Be careful with the dog.”→He warned me to be careful with the dog.
  5. 直接引语变间接引语时,如果引述动词为过去式,需注意时态的变化:如:
  1) Betty said, “Lingling is singing in the classroom now.” 现在进行时→
  Betty said Lingling was singing in the class room then.-过去进行时
  2) He said, “I will go to London next week.” 一般将来时→
  He said he would go to London next week. 过去将来时
  3) My mother said, “I have already cleaned the house.” 现在完成时→
  My mother said she had already cleaned the house. 过去完成时
  注意:
  1. 直接引语是客观事实、普遍真理等,主句尽管是过去时态,变成间接引语时,时态仍然用一般现在时态。例如:
  They told their son,“The earth goes round the sun.”→They told their son that the earth goes round the sun.
  2. 直接引语变间接引语时, 指示代词、时间状语、地点状语、动词等要作相应的变化。如:this→that, these→those, now→then, today→that day, yesterday→the day before, last year→the year before, ago→before, here→there come→go等。例如:
  He said, “I haven’t seen them today.” →He said that he hadn’t seen them that day.
  但是,如果转述时对话人双方就在原来的地方,或在说话的当天,就不必改变相应的时间状语、地点状语等。总之,对这些变化不能机械理解,应根据实际情况来决定所作的变化。
  3. 间接引语一般要用陈述句的语序,即主、谓、宾的顺序。本回答被提问者采纳
