Question:

Select the correct indirect speech of: The officer said, "We shall seal the room tonight."

1.
The officer said that they would seal the room that night.
2.
The officer said that we will seal the room tonight.
3.
The officer told that they shall seal the room that night.
4.
The officer said that they should seal the room tonight.

Correct Answer: The officer said that they would seal the room that night.

"Shall" becomes "would", "we" becomes "they", and "tonight" becomes "that night". Option (c) is wrong because "told" cannot take "that" without an object, and (d) wrongly changes "shall" to "should".
