Grammar 2A 1 ✗ Incorrect. In a reported question the word order should be the same as a
statement, ie if we were interested. 2 ✓ Correct 3 ✗ Incorrect. It’s a fact so we use the present tense: snakes are deadly. 4 ✗ Incorrect. In a reported question we don’t use do/did and the word order stays the same as the statement. 5 ✓ Correct 6 ✗ Incorrect. The word order is correct here, but the verb changes from is true to was true when it is reported.
7 ✗ Incorrect. This is supposed to be a reported fact so the verb stays in the srcinal tense, ie swallow (the present simple). 8 ✓ Correct.
Grammar 2B Note: When asking about a general truth there is no need to change the tense. The word order changes to the same as a statement because the question starts with a question word. 1 She asked me why honey is so sweet. 2 She wanted to know why bees buzz. 3 She asked me how bees turn pollen into honey. 4 She asked me if honey helps heal cuts. 5 She wanted to know why a bee dies when it stings someone. 6 She asked me if pollen gives honey its flavour. 7 She asked me if she would die if a bee stung her.

Suggested answer: Advert 1 does a better job. It has a more descriptive headline, gives more information about the item, and shows that the seller has looked after it well. The seller also speaks very positively about the item and his feelings about it, and is clearly sad to sell it. These personal touches help to create a sense of trust in the seller.
