Question

直接引语变为间接引语的时态变化有哪几种？

Answer 1

从句动词时态的变化
a.
如果主句的时态是一般过去时，从句的时态则应是与主句时态相应的过去时态。①一般现在时→一般过去时；②一般过去时→过去完成时；③现在进行时→过去进行时；④现在完成时→过去完成时；⑤过去完成时→过去完成时（不变）；⑥一般将来时→过去将来时。例如：
The
girl
said,
“I'm
sorry
for
being
late
for
class.”
→The
girl
said
that
she
was
sorry
for
being
late
for
class.
b.
直接引语变为间接引语时，如果主句中的谓语动词是一般现在时或一般将来时，则间接引语从句的时态保持不变。例如：
He
says,
“I
have
finished
my
homework.”
→He
says
that
he
has
finished
his
homework.
She
will
say,
“I'll
do
it
tomorrow.”
→She
will
say
that
she'll
do
it
the
next
day.
c.
直接引语如果是客观事实或真理，变为间接引语时，从句时态不变。例如：
The
teacher
said,
“The
earth
moves
around
the
sun.”
→The
teacher
said
that
the
earth
moves
around
the
sun.
