Answer and explanation
Correct Answer: B: He said that he was busy.
Explanation: In indirect speech, when the reporting verb is in the past tense, the present tense usually changes into the past tense. “I am busy” becomes “he was busy.” The pronoun also changes from “I” to “he” according to the speaker. Direct and indirect speech questions are repeatedly tested in Pakistani English papers.
