Explanation

He asked me to keep quiet.

This option correctly conveys the meaning of the original statement, transforming the direct speech into indirect speech.

The phrase captures the essence of the command while using the appropriate reporting verb "asked."

Explanation

He asked me whether I would help him is correct.

In indirect speech, a yes/no question with "will" changes to "would," and "will you" is converted to "whether I would" to report the question accurately.

Explanation

He ordered him to leave the room and forbade him to return is correct.

In indirect speech, "said to" changes to "ordered" for a command, and "do not return" becomes "forbade him to return" to express prohibition.

Explanation

Indirect speech, also known as reported speech, is a way of conveying someone's words without using their exact words.

In this case, the original statement is "I am a little bit nervous."

To convert it to indirect speech, we need to change the pronoun "I" to "she" and keep the rest of the sentence the same.

So, the indirect speech version is: "She says that she is a little bit nervous."

Explanation

This is future simple tense ("will repair"), so passive form is "will be + past participle".

"Repair" changes to "be repaired" and subject "He" becomes "by him" in passive voice.

Explanation

In passive voice, the subject of the sentence receives the action.

In this case, "the mouse" is the subject and it's receiving the action of being chased.

The word "was" is a form of the verb "to be," which is a key indicator of passive voice, along with the past participle "chased".
