Answer 1

Answer:

B. He said to me that he had finished the work the previous day itself.

• Replace the quotation marks with "that."
• Change the pronoun "I" to "he" to match the person speaking.
• Adjust the tense of the verb to past perfect because the action occurred before the time of reporting. "I finished" becomes "he had finished."
• In reporting sppeech - yesterday becomes - the previous day or the day before. 
• Tomorrow becomes - the next day, Here becomes There; Now becomes Then etc.
