Answer:
The physical education teacher ordered the students to stand at ease.
From the format and context of this sentence, we can say that it is talking about narration. So, we will convert the direct speech to indirect.
Explanation:
In the below explanation, we are sharing how tense changes into Indirect speech:
- Direct Speech: Past simple (Subject + V2 + Object)
- Indirect Speech: Past perfect (Subject + had + V3 + Object)
- Apparently, in the above-mentioned sentence 'said' word represents past tense. Thus, the indirect speech would be in simple past tense (ordered).
- Also, a teacher always gives order to the students thus, we will add it in the indirect speech.
- Furthermore, 'to' will be added according to the rules.
- Moreover, 'stand at ease' is a general phrase. So, the tense cannot be changed.
Hence, the indirect speech is: The physical education teacher ordered the students to stand at ease.
