Answer 1

Here is the correct answer:

Father asked me to bring him a glass of milk.

or

Father asked his son to bring him a glass of milk.

Explanation:

The given direct speech sentence was an imperative sentence.  

When we change an imperative direct speech or vice versa into indirect speech we do the following changes:

1. Reporting verb is changed according to the request, advice, suggestion, or command tone of the sentence.

2. Linking word 'to' is used to join the quoted speech with the reporting verb. In case the sentence is negative 'not to' is used.

3. The other changes of the tense, time adverbials, and pronouns are the same.

Answer 2

Indirect speech:

Father instructed to bring him a glass of milk.

Explanation:

• The given sentence is a imperative sentence. Since, the given sentence is a instruction, the word "instructed" is used in indirect speech.
• The sentence is given as direct speech which is changed into reported speech.
• The word "me" is changed into "him" in indirect speech.
• The present tense in the direct speech is converted into past tense in indirect speech. If the direct speech is in past tense, it is converted into past participle.
