Answer :
To report the speech using "wondered," the sentence would be:
He wondered if she had agreed with him.
Explanation:
1. In the original sentence, the speaker asked if she agreed. When reporting this using "wondered," the structure changes to "wondered if" followed by the rest of the sentence.
2. The past tense form "had agreed" is used because the reporting verb "wondered" shifts the tense back one step from the original question.
For the second part of the question:
The word with a different initial consonant sound is:
(iii) gnash
Explanation:
1. In the given words, "knit," "gnaw," "gnash," and "snore," all words except "gnash" start with a /n/ sound.
2. The word "gnash" starts with a /g/ sound, making it the only word with a different initial consonant sound compared to the others provided.
