DIRECTIONS: A sentence has been given in Direct/Indirect form out of the four alternative suggested, select the one which best expresses the same sentence in Indirect/Direct form.


"So help me Heaven!" he cried, "I will never steal again".

B) He exclaimed to Heaven that he would never steal again
C) He cried out to the Heaven to help him as he would resolve never to steal again.
D) He called upon Heaven to witness his resolve never to steal again
Solution:
Ans: (c)

"cried out" is the correct phrasal verb as mentioned in the narration and to be taken from. Neither of the parts i.e. 'the help' and 'the resolution being promised' can be neglected.

The best answer will be

He cried out to the Heaven to help him as he would resolve never to steal again.
