Correct answer and explanation
Correct answer: He ordered me to wait there until he returned.
Explanation: ā Correct Answer: B. He ordered me to wait there until he returned. š Explanation: For an imperative sentence, the reporting verb changes to 'ordered' or 'told'. The word 'here' changes to 'there' and 'return' changes to 'returned' in indirect speech. The sentence structure becomes an infinitive clause with 'to wait'. This correctly follows the rules of narration change.
