Question

Look at the picture to see what Mary thought when she was small. Write her
thoughts in reported speech.

Answer 1

La oración en direct speech está escrita tal cual la dijo la prsona

En el reported speech reescribes la oración como algo que tú escuchaste en el pasado:

"She said that animals could talk. Cats had nine lives. Her father knew everything. Spaghetti grew in the threes. The teacher lived in the school. She would be rich one day and that her mother had always been old."
