Answer 1

Answer:

He asked me if the world was so poor that it could not give him a book and a toy instead of forcing him to a gun as a tool.

Explanation:

To convert Direct speech to Indirect Speech-

1) Remove the inverted commas;

  He asked me, ''Is the world so poor that it cannot give me a toy and a book     instead of forcing me to a gun as a tool?"

= He asked me is the world so poor that it cannot give me a toy and a book     instead of forcing me to a gun as a tool?

2) Change it into a 'second-person' perspective sentence;

   He asked me is the world so poor that it cannot give me a toy and a book     instead of forcing me to a gun as a tool?

= He asked me if the world so poor that it cannot give him a toy and a book     instead of forcing him to a gun as a tool.

3) Make it past-tensed;

  He asked me if the world so poor that it cannot give him a toy and a book     instead of forcing him to a gun as a tool.

= He asked me if the world so poor that it could not give him a toy and a book instead of forcing him to a gun as a tool.
