Answer 2

Answer:

Firstly the punctuation marks should be as follows:

The boy says, “ I can do it.”

Indirect speech: The boy says that he can do that.

The reporting verb is ‘says' and it is Present Tense. If the tense of the verb is Present while changing into Indirect the tense of the reported verb does not change. It remains the same.

Reporting verb : verb outside the quotation marks.

Reported verb: verb inside the quotation marks.
