Answer :
This question is based on direct and indirect speech.
The given sentence is in direct speech.
Direct Speech : I said to the boys, "You should do your duty."
Direct speech is defined as the way of repeating what someone said using the exact same words used by that person.
The given sentence, correctly converted to indirect speech, is :
Indirect Speech : I told the boys that they should do their duty.
Indirect speech is defined as the way of reporting what someone said without using the exact same words and without changing the meaning of the statements. It is also called reported speech.
