Bwhether she can sing

Cthat she could sing

Dwhether could she sing

Answer:

A. whether she could sing

Read Explanation:

  • In reported speech, when the reporting verb (like asked) is in the past tense, the verb in the subordinate clause usually also shifts to the past tense.

  • "Can" becomes "could" in reported speech.

  • The correct word order is subject + verb, not verb + subject (so "she could," not "could she").
