Reported Commands & Requests exercises online (Multiple Choice)
When someone gives a command or instruction, we report it using 'tell + object + to + infinitive'. For example: "Open the door!" becomes 'He told me to open the door.' Unlike reported statements, there is no tense backshift — we simply use the infinitive form. Practise converting direct commands into reported speech.
