Thanks.
Just one confusion to be cleared please.
I read that reported speach from Past Perfect is to be converted into Past Perfect Continuous tens. Then is :
She said, "I had an infection".
converted as:
she told that she had an infection.

Thanks again.

No Past Perfect is not changed into Past Perfect Continuous it remains the same means Past Perfect tense remains unchanged while other changes are made. In above example:
She said, "I had an infection" will be changed into She told that she had an infection so in this sentence you can easily see that there is no change of tense but other changes have been made.
Hope it will be clear to you now.
Regards!

Many a girl was appearing in the examination.
is correct because "Many a" always followed be a singular helping verb and verb.If you have any doubt kindly check "Wren & Martin" composition book. page no 236 and example no 114.
