ПЕРЕВОД В КОСВЕННУЮ РЕЧЬ ПО-РУССКИ.

Алан решил помочь Джине написать сочинение на тему "Весенний день" и посоветовался с Эйми, как лучше написать об этом. Эйми поинтересовалась, почему Алан спрашивает, и очень удивилась, когда узнала, что Алан пишет сочинение вместо Джины.

Алан ответил, что Джина устала, потому что они с ней вчера много играли  в настольный теннис.

Эйми ответила, что все равно Джина должна делать свои уроки сама. И добавила, что она сомневается, что Алан справиться с заданием.

Алан стал читать свое сочинение Эйми, но ей оно совсем не понравилось. И неожиданно она сказала, что весной ей не очень хорошо, потому что у ней нет весеннего пальто.
