This document outlines the key aspects of a personality project, including inherited features and traits, outer appearance, social behavior, talents and abilities, inside characteristics like future plans and emotions, and favorites. The project touches on areas like eating habits, fears, pet peeves, and life experiences to provide a well-rounded view of the individual.
The document discusses two ways to report what others have said in English: direct speech and indirect (reported) speech. Direct speech uses quotation marks to report the exact words spoken, while indirect speech changes verbs and pronouns to reflect that a statement is being reported rather than being spoken directly. Indirect speech typically shifts the tense back one time (e.g. "I am happy" becomes "He said he was happy") and changes words like tomorrow to reflect the new timeframe of reporting rather than when originally spoken.

Last week you learned about reported speech. Now you will learn how to report questions. To report a question, use the verb "ask". For example: "Are you a stranger?" She asked (me) if I was a stranger. Look at how we report questions starting with words like "where", "what", "when". For example: "Where are you going?" He asked (them) where they were going. "What did you do?" He asked (her) what she had done. "When did you go?" He asked (me) when I had gone.
The document discusses two methods for reported speech in English: direct speech and indirect (reported) speech. Direct speech uses quotation marks to report the exact words spoken. Indirect speech does not use quotation marks and usually involves backshifting verbs to the past tense or past perfect tense depending on the time frame. Certain verbs like would, could, should do not change in reported speech. Time expressions may also need to be changed in indirect speech depending on the context.
