We use a 'reporting verb' like 'say' or 'tell' to tell someone what someone
.else has said
In reported speech, we often use a tense which is 'further back' in the past
(e.g. worked) than the tense originally used (e.g. work). This is called
'backshift'. We also may need to change other words that were used, for
.example pronouns
If there is backshift of tenses in Reported Speech, the tenses are shifted the **
.following way
Present Past
this evening that evening
today/this day that day
these days those days
Now then
a week ago a week before
the weekend before /
last weekend
the previous weekend
next week the following week
Here there

Part 4 : Writing

Traffic Jam
One of the most serious issues facing the majority of large urban areas is traffic
jams. The main reason for this is that there are too many private cars on the roads these
days.
A solution that is proving successful in many areas is park-and-ride schemes. This is
where you park your car for free in a large car park on the outskirts of the city and take a
bus for the final part of your journey. The fee you have to pay for the bus trip is usually
very small and this public transport system is generally very regular, running every ten
minutes or so. A survey carried out in the city of Exeter showed that the rush hour
congestion decreased by 10% when the council set up a park-and-ride scheme to the
north of the city. There was an additional drop of another 10% in traffic volume when a
second scheme began operating to the south.
To conclude, the major urban problem of traffic congestion caused by the excessive
number of private cars on city roads can be partly alleviated by the introduction of park-
and-ride systems on city fringes. I would certainly use one if it was introduced in my area.
Your essay:
