Answer 2

Answer:

How would one change “The old man said, ‘Alas! I am undone!’” to indirect speech?

The old man said, ‘Alas! I am undone!’

While changing any Exclamatory Sentence like the one above, the reporting verb is changed into “exclaimed”, followed by a term explaining the nature of the exclamation ( like “anguish”, in this case) and the original message is expressed in the indirect mode, after the remark, “by saying that”.

Applying the above-mentioned principles, the indirect form for the quoted sentence would be,

The old man exclaimed his anguish by saying that he was undone.

( The Present Indefinite Tense of Message in the Direct Speech has been changed into the Past Indefinite Tense in the Indirect Speech.)
