A    He exclaimed with joy that the flowers were very beautiful

B    He exclaimed with joy that the flowers were beautiful

C    He cried out that the flowers were beautiful

D    He exclaimed with joy that the flowers are beautiful

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

- প্রদত্ত বাক্যটি Exclamatory sentence এবং এটি দ্বারা আনন্দ বা উচ্ছ্বাস প্রকাশ পাচ্ছে।
- Reporting verb-এর পরিবর্তে আনন্দ বুঝালে exclaimed with joy বসে।
- Inverted comma উঠে গিয়ে conjunction হিসেবে that বসে।
- Reported speech-টি 'How' বা 'What' দ্বারা শুরু হলে Indirect speech-এ এদের পরিবর্তে very/much/great ইত্যাদি বসে।
- Present Indefinite tense (are) পরিবর্তিত হয়ে Past Indefinite (were) হবে।
- Structure: Subject + exclaimed with joy + that + reported speech-এর subject (the flowers) + verb (were) + very + adjective (beautiful)।
