Option 4 : She told them that that was the best part.

The correct answer is option 4)  i.e. She told them that that was the best part.

  • The basic rules for changing or converting direct speech into indirect speech:
    • ​Remove comma and inverted commas.
    • The conjunction 'that' is used in place of commas and inverted commas.
  • Here, the direct speech is in the present simple tense (Subject +V1st + Object), thus we have to change it into the corresponding past simple tense (Subject +V2 + Object) in the indirect speech.
  • From the following rules, we get the correct sentence as "She told them that that was the best part."
