Answer 2

If we change the narration we can have as follows,

• (a)Subal asked Sushil the reason for still being in bed. - So here basically we need to remove the quotation marks and the wh-word "why" and replaced "why" with "the reason for".
• (b)Sushil replied that he had a terrible stomach ache.
• In English grammar, narrative change is important. Narration change occurs when a speaker's speech is changed from direct to indirect without affecting the message. There are two types of narration. Direct Speech: Direct speech is when a speaker's speech is repeated in a quote.
