Explanation:
Direct speech means reporting a speech by repeating the words of the speaker verbatim.
Indirect speech is expressing the words of a speaker without explicitly quoting or repeating the words.
Some simple steps in changing direct speech to indirect speech are:
- Remove all inverted commas or quotation marks.
- Finish the sentence with a period.
- Change the verbs in the inverted commas to the corresponding tense.
The statement that best describes the use of sound devices in the lines is the one that reads as follows: "Excerpt 1 contains alliteration, and excerpt 2 contains onomatopeia".
Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. In the first example, the sound /t/ is repeated in "turbulency tells". On the other hand, onomatopeia is the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named. In the second example, there are "moaning" and "groaning", both verbs relating to sounds and being formed from the sound they are associated with.
