Imagine que você é o personagem do lado esquerdo no último quadrinho da tirinha, e você está reportando ao seu chefe o que o seu colega dissera. A alternativa que faz uso do Reported Speech corretamente para comunicar a fala do colega é:

a) He said that I don't have time to stand here and argue with you all day!

b) He told that I don't have time to stand here and argue with me all day!

c) He said he didn't have time to stand there and argue with me all day.

d) He told he didn't have time to stand there and argue with him all day.

e) I don't have time to stand here and argue with you all day!

Answer 1

Resposta: C

Explicação: Letra A e B estão incorretas, pois a fala do quadro está no present simple, ele usou I do not, eu tenho que usar a frase no passado e alterar o sujeito para He.

Letra E está incorreta, pois não está reportado, está no discurso direto.

Fiquei entre C e D, mas quando usa o told necessita de objeto, he told (me) that...

Logo a única opção que sobra como correta é a letra C.
