Solution
The correct option is B It is a gorgeous gown. Exclamatory sentences are those sentences which express a state of sorrow, joy, wonder or excitement. To change such sentences into indirect speech, specific words are added to the sentence like exclaimed with joy, exclaimed with wonder, cried with grief, wish, etc.
The given sentence shows astonishment. The sentence would become - It is a gorgeous gown. Options A and D do not show astonishment. Option C is not an assertive sentence.
