[简答题]What is the difference between direct thought and free indirect thought Compare the following sentences and explain their differences briefly.

参考答案: Direct thought is one way of speech and thought presentation, and it tends to be used for presenting conscious, deliberative thought. It is quite often used to represent imaginary conversations which characters have with themselves or others, which is presumably why it so often has the flavour of conscious thinking.
Free indirect thoughts are the categories used by novelists to represent the thoughts of their characters. They are exactly the same as those used to represent a speech. Free indirect thoughts contain a mixture of direct and indirect features, as we can show by "translating" them first into indirect thought and then direct thought.
Sentence A is a direct thought because it directly presents the thinking "she" has. The way this thought is presented to the audience is as if she was making a speech.
Sentence B is indirect thought. It gives the audience the content of the thought but not the exact words that appear in her mind.
Sentence C is free indirect thought. It points out the content of the thought without signifying that she is doing so. It appears at first sight to be indirect thought but has the feature of direct thought.
