Answer 2

Answer:

He said that he was going home then.

Explanation:

In the given sentence , the part which is outside the quotation, is in Simple Past Tense.

• According to the rule, If the outside part is in Simple Past Tense, then the inside part i.e. the part within the quotation will also changed into Past Tense. So the verb "am" which is in the Present Tense, will be changed into "was".

• In the direct speech, as the speaker is "he", in the reported speech the pronoun "I" will also be changed into "he".

• According to the rule, the word "now" gets changed into "then" in the reported speech.

Hence, following the rules the reported speech will be-

He said that he was going home then.
