and for the second one:
2. How do you do this algebra homework?
to be converted into
Could you tell me ____________________________________________?
and the answer given is:

From the fact pattern, here are the answers I come to:
1. I'd like to know who's seen the new vampire movie.
2. Could you tell me how'd you do this algebra homework?
3. Tell me where's that new fantasy book.
4. The travel updates when the train's arriving. (This makes no sense to me. What is "the travel"??)
5. Do you have any idea why Sally's crying?
Any thoughts?
If there's any hole in my reasoning, I welcome comments. As I can benefit from it too
(Thanks in advance.)
