Объяснение:

Если в главном предложении глагол-сказуемое стоит в прошедшем времени (Past Simple), то при переводе прямой речи в косвенную соблюдается правило согласования времен, и перед косвенной речью ставится союз that, который после глаголов say, know, think и т. п. может не употребляться.

В косвенной речи вопросы имеют прямой порядок слов, и если в главной части используется глагол в форме прошедшего времени, то в придаточной необходимо соблюдать правило согласования времен. Например, формы Present заменяются на Past, Past Simple заменяем на Past Perfect и т. д.

Общие вопросы в косвенной речи превращаются в придаточные, присоединяемые союзом if или whether.
