Correct Answer: b)

Explanation:

Shifting back to direct speech: ‘had been’ -> ‘Have you been’, ‘the previous week’ -> ‘last week’, ‘still preferred’ -> ‘do you still prefer’, and ‘they’ -> ‘we’. Option (b) correctly constructs the direct questions.

प्रत्यक्ष कथन में बदलने पर: ‘had been’ का ‘Have you been’, ‘the previous week’ का ‘last week’, तथा ‘still preferred’ का ‘do you still prefer’ हो जाएगा।
