Detail about MCQs
The correct answer is: Ali told Amna that Sarah would be leaving for Peshawar tomorrow.
When changing the given direct speech to indirect speech, we need to make a few adjustments to verb tenses and pronouns.
In the original direct speech, the reported speech was “Sarah will leave for Peshawar tomorrow.” To change this to indirect speech, we generally shift the verb tenses one step back. Therefore, “will” changes to “would.” Additionally, we change the pronoun “she” to “Sarah.” Hence, the correct indirect speech version of the sentence is: “Ali told Amna that Sarah would be leaving for Peshawar tomorrow.”
