Answer:

The indirect speech of the given sentence is, "My mother ordered me to get her a glass of water".

Explanation:

  • The given sentence is an imperative sentence in direct speech. The subject in the imperative sentence is hidden and understood as the ‘you’.
  • While changing to indirect speech, it should be in the reported form.
  • Direct order or imperative sentences are changed using appropriate words like requested, ordered, commanded etc and by using the to-infinitive form of verb.
  • The tense of the indirect sentence should be maintained in past tense.
  • The quotation marks used in the direct sentence is removed and quoted words are written as a statement.
