    Question

    Sheena said to her,” Who are you and where are you

    coming from?”
    A Sheena asked to her who he was and where was she coming from. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Sheena asked her who she is and where is she coming from. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Sheena enquired of her who she was and where she was coming from. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Sheena told her who she was and where was she coming from. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    While converting an interrogative sentence into indirect sentence, the Reporting verb is changed into ‘asked’, ‘enquired of’…. If the question begins with a question word such as ‘Who’, ‘what’, etc., no conjunction is used between the reporting verb and the reported speech. Therefore, the correct answer is- Sheena enquired of her who she was and where she was coming from.
