Change the narration: She said to her brother, "Did you finish your homework?"

A She asked her brother if he had finished his homework.

B She asked her brother whether you had finished your homework.

C She told her brother if he finished his homework.

D She enquired of her brother if he finished his homework.

Correct Answer & Explanation

Option A

• For interrogative sentences, 'said to' changes to 'asked' or 'enquired of'. • Since it's a Yes/No question, 'if' or 'whether' is used as the connector. • The tense 'Did you finish' (Simple Past) changes to 'had finished' (Past Perfect) in indirect speech. • The pronoun 'you' (second person) changes to 'he' (referring to her brother), and 'your' changes to 'his'.
