Task: Turn the sentences in reported speech into the questions.

There must be 9
questions all in all.

THE JOB INTERVIEW

Charles had a job interview a few days ago at the United Insurance Company.
The interview lasted almost an hour, and Charles had to answer a lot of questions.
First, the interviewer asked Charles where he had gone to school. Then she
asked if he had had any special training. She asked where he had worked. She also
asked whether he was willing to move to another city. She wanted to know if he could
work overtime and weekends. She asked him how his health was. She asked him
whether he had ever been fired. She wanted to know why he had had four different
jobs last year.
And finally, the interviewer asked the most difficult question. She wanted to
know why Charles thought he was more qualified for the position than the other sixty-
two people who had applied.
Charles had never been asked so many questions at a job interview before. He
doesn’t know how well he did, but he tried his best.
