Bonjour
2. Discours direct/indirect
(One of my first encounters with prejudice happened when I was too young to remember, but I've heard my mother tell the story. She and I were standing at a bus stop). It was a hot day and I was thirsty, so we walked up the block to a small diner, where she asked if she could have a cup of water for her son. The man said he could not help us and closed the door in our faces.
Ali: "Mum, I'm thirsty."
avec un verbe inroducteur >Ali said he was thirsty Dans le texte I was thirsty
His mother: "Could I have a cup of water for my son?"
She asked if she could have a cup of water for her son.
The man: "Sorry, I can't help you."
The man said he could not help us
b. Repère dans le texte les phrases correspondant au dialogue
elles sont soulignées
Pour la pièce jointe
I'm thirsty = I was thirsty
I can't = I couldn't
attention changement de temps uniquement si le verbe introducteur est au passé.
S'il est au présent, rien ne change
Un autre modal en -ld => would
