[我的发现]
(1)由句①可知,当直接引语为陈述句变为间接引语时,时态、人称、时间状语以及指示代词等通常要改变。
(2)由句②可知,当直接引语为一般疑问句变为间接引语时,首先变为陈述句语序,然后再加上连词if或whether来引导间接引语。
(3)由句③可知,当直接引语为祈使句时,要加上合适的动词,如ask, tell, order, require, demand等动词作谓语,然后将该祈使句变成动词不定式作宾补。
(4)由句④可知,当直接引语为谚语、格言以及客观真理、自然现象时,间接引语中的谓语动词不用改变,仍使用一般现在时态。
(5)由句⑤可知,当直接引语为特殊疑问句变为间接引语时,首先将其变为陈述句语序,但仍用原来的疑问词引导。
