Correct Answer: Mother asked him how he had gotten the tickets to the show.

Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

Indirect speech focuses more on the content of what someone says than their exact words.

In the transition from direct question to indirect speech:

• The reporting verb "said" is changed to "asked".
• "How" will be used as a conjunction because the question word itself becomes the conjunction in the case of the interrogative sentence.
• The simple past tense "did get" is changed to the past perfect tense, "had gotten".
• The second-person pronoun "you" is changed to the third-person pronoun "he".
