Объяснение:
При написании предложения с косвенной речью нужно соблюдать правило согласования времен ("шага назад"), то есть времена группы Present заменяем временами группы Past, времена Future меняем на future-in-the-past.
Кроме того, необходимо заменять некоторые обстоятельства времени и местоимения (например, now заменяется на then, today - that day, yesterday - the day before и т. д.)
