  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    You are writing a biography of Sallie H. Ray, a popular lyricist. How would you best include the following in the biography:
    Sallie said, "I never thought I would become a lyricist."
    Solution
    The given line "I never thought I would become a lyricist" when written in the biography, will change to indirect speech. The narrator will present Sallie H. Ray's point of view in the third person (indirect speech).
    Options A and C: Both these options accurately present S.R's line.
    'Sallie' and 'Ray' refer to the person whose biography is being written.
    Ideally, the narrator will mention the surname of that person, not the first name. You call someone by their first name when you personally know them and you're talking about them in a friendly manner.
    But, you call someone by their surname on professional grounds, and when you don't know them personally.
    Hence, option C is correct and A is incorrect.
    Option B: The words 'reported to have said' are unnecessary. They elongate the sentence without reason. Hence option B is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in C.

The biography will be based on the source text where the character is described and additional imaginative information cannot be included here.
