English
Speaking Activity
We can report the words of a speaker in two ways:
1. By repeating the exact words used by the speaker.
2. By reporting only the content of what he said.
Now read the following sentences.
1. Ram said, “Anand is a good boy.”
2. Ram said that Anand was a good boy.
In the first sentence, we repeat, or quote, the exact words spoken by the speaker. This
is called Direct Speech or Narration. Here we put the exact words of the speaker
within quotation marks (" ") and we place a colon after 'said'. We write first word
inside the quotation marks with a capital letter.
Page 2 of 17
A comma is placed after the Reporting Verb to separate it from the second part of the
sentence. In the first sentence, “said” is called the reporting verb, and “Anand is a
good boy.” is called the Reported Speech.
In the second sentence, we do not give the exact words of the speaker but give only
the content of what he said. This is called Indirect Speech or Narration.
In Indirect speech (sometimes called reported speech), we do not use quotation marks
to enclose what the person said and it doesn't have to be word for word. Here colon is
not used after said. Reported or indirect speech is usually used to talk about the past,
so we normally change the tense of the words spoken. The Verb „is is changed to
was. (The Tense of the Verb in the Reported Speech is changed from the Present to the
Past.). Here the Reported Speech is introduced by the Conjunction „that.

direct speech.

2) CP = 30,260
= 4.40
B. Find the profit and loss, after calculating the cost price.
2) CP = 3000
Overhead charges = 880
SP = 3200
CP > SP
SP = 1500
CP > SP
CP > SP , there is a loss.
Loss = CP – SP
So, Ali has loss 125.
Q3: CP of the vegetables = 540 SP of the vegetables = 580 SP > CP , there is a profit. Profit = SP – CP = 580 – 540 = 40 So, the vegetable vendor earned a profit of 40.
Exercise 12.3
SP = CP - Loss
SP = CP + Profit
CP = SP - Profit
CP = SP + Loss
Page 15 of 17
Exercise 12.4 2) Cost price of the desktop = 32,000 Loss incurred = 4979 SP = ? SP = CP – loss = 32,000 – 4979 = 27,021 So, the selling price of the desktop was 27,021 3) Selling price of the table = 2756 Profit earned = 596 CP = ? CP = SP – Profit = 2756 – 596 = 2160 So, the cost price of the table is 2160.

Section C: Value Based / HOTS
1. Why do we see astronauts floating in space but not on earth?
As the gravitational force on Moon is 1/6 of the earth.
2. Why does the moon have many craters but the earth has few?
As Moon does not have air around it so there is no atmosphere to cover it as a blanket.
When asteroids collide with it, craters are formed on moon easily where as on earth
the blanket of air protects the surface of the Earth from colliding with asteroids.
3. Why do astronauts carry special radio devices to talk on the moon?
Only radio device can be used for communication as sound needs air as a medium to
travel and moon does not have air.
4. How are artificial satellites useful for fishermen?
