Answer 2

Answer:

The reported speech of this sentence is "The teacher said that the earth goes around the sun"

Explanation:

When the reporting verb in the sentence is in past tense then all the present tense in the sentence is changed to their respective past tense. But, in this case, speech within an inverted comma is a universal truth so the above rule will not be followed and in this case, the verb ‘goes'  may not be changed.

So, the reported sentence may be either "The teacher said that earth goes round the sun " or "The teacher said that earth went around the sun" Both sentences will be correct.
