Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. The gardener requested the children not to pluck any flowers.
In indirect speech, we need to remove commas and inverted commas.
Please indicate a request. Thus, 'requested' should be used in the place of 'please'.
And 'do not' should be replaced by 'not to'.
So, the final sentence is: The gardener requested the children not to pluck any flowers.
