Случаи отклонения от правил согласования времен
1) Если глагол-сказуемое в дополнительном придаточном предложении выражает общеизвестный факт, он может быть выражен Present Simple и в том случае, когда глагол-сказуемое главного предложения стоит в прошедшем времени:
The teacher told the children that the earth goes round the sun. – Учитель сказал детям, что Земля вращается вокруг Солнца.
2) Глагол-сказуемое в определительных, причинных, а также сравнительных придаточных предложениях может употребляться во временах Present и Future несмотря на то, что глагол-сказуемое главного предложения стоит в прошедшем времени:
He told me about the article you are writing now. – Он рассказал мне о статье, которую ты пишешь.
Не was not able to come because he is very busy. – Он не смог прийти, потому что очень занят.
Last year I worked less than I work now. – В прошлом году я работал меньше, чем я работаю сейчас.
3) Глаголы must, should, ought употребляются в придаточном предложении независимо от того, в каком времени стоит глагол-сказуемое главного предложения.
I tell (told) her that she must consult a doctor. – Я говорю (сказал) ей, что ей следует посоветоваться с врачом.
