"You can't bathe in this sea," he said to me, "it's very rough."

  • A.He said that I can't bathe in this sea because it's very rough.
  • B.He said that you couldn't bathe in the sea if it was very rough
  • C.He said that I couldn't bathe in that sea as it was very rough
  • D.He said that you can't bathe in this sea since it was very rough

Answer: C

Correct answer: He said that I couldn't bathe in that sea as it was very rough

You becomes I, can't becomes couldn't, this sea becomes that sea, and it's becomes it was. The two sentences of direct speech are joined with as, which makes the second the reason for the first.
