Question 70

Out of the given options, pick the one which best expresses the following sentence in indirect speech.

The coach said, "Well done ! You have made me proud."

Direct Speech: The coach said, "Well done! You have made me proud."

The reporting verb is said (past tense). So, in indirect speech, we also need to maintain the same tense.

So, options A, B, and C can be eliminated as the tense does not match properly.

The correct answer is option D: The coach applauded and said that he had made him proud.
