2)The mistakes in the original sentences were:
"Alice he can't see the TV" - incorrect word order, should be "Dave told Alice he couldn't see the TV" because the reporting verb is in the past tense.
"they are going to a party the next day" - incorrect use of tense, should be "We're going to a party tomorrow" because the reported speech is in the present tense.
"she went to visit her cousins this weekend" - incorrect use of tense, should be "Jill said she was going to visit her cousins this weekend" because the reported speech is in the future tense.
"his grandparents were going to visit they soon" - incorrect word order and missing pronoun, should be "Jake told his grandparents they were going to visit us soon."
