d option is correct ,she says that ,that river has no water in summer

Answer 2

Option D. is the correct answer.

Explanation:

• The most important rule of transforming a sentence in Direct Speech to Indirect Speech is to keep the tense of the reporting verb the same in both the cases.

• In the given sentence the reporting verb is 'says' . It is in the simple present tense.  

• In option A) the reporting verb remains the same but the other action verb 'has' is changed to 'had'which does not agree with the reporting verb.  

• Option B) is not appropriate even though the tense is correct.  The sentence in the direct speech begins with the demonstrative pronoun 'that'.  As a result in the indirect speech there will be two consecutive 'that'.

• Option C) is incorrect as the reporting verb has been changed from 'says' to 'said'.

• Option D is appropriate thus.
