N.B
.:
1) It is always
better to use the direct speech, than the indirect speech.
2) It's not
always necessary to change the verb when we change the direct into the indirect
speech (the reported speech) especially if we are reporting (saying) something
and we feel that it is still true or still happening : (H.K.)
Ex: Ahmed said
"I want to go to Egypt"
Ahmed said (that)
he wants (or wanted) to go to Egypt.
Zaki said "I
woke up feeling ill and so I stayed in bed"
Zaki said (that)
he woke (or had woken) up feeling ill and so he stayed (or had
stayed) in bed.

Comprehension : How to spend leisure time :
Leisure time can be useful or harmful. Among the useful things that
suits leisure time , to those who can read and like reading , is to read. It is
important to choose such a reading that is useful for building your personality
intellectually, spiritually and socially … .
Another method is listening, listen to your father and mother, to
friends, to cassette tapes and to the T.V., but in all this you should choose
useful things for you.

relaxation, for all these things are also useful and no one can continuously
concentrate, be serious, or be in tension all the time.
