Change the narration: The old lady said to her son" Is it not your duty to help me in my old age"?
- The old lady asked her son if it was not his duty to help her in her old age
- The old lady asked her son if it was not his duty to help him in her old age
- The old lady asked her son That it was not his duty to help her in her old age
- None of these
Explanation
The original statement is a direct quote, whereas the correct answer is a reported speech, which is a more polite and formal way of expressing the same sentence.
In reported speech, we change the sentence structure to:
"She asked him + question word + subject + verb"
So, the direct quote:
"Is it not your duty to help me in my old age?"
Becomes:
"She asked him if it was not his duty to help her in her old age."
