　　　　 Close the door.

　　　　 Give something to drink.

　　　　 Take the dog for a walk.

　　　　 Speak louder.

　　　　 Clean your room.

3　 Go through the two examples in Part1 with the whole class, then present some other sentences for Ss:

　 (1) She said to us, “Please sit down.”

She asked us to sit down.

　 (2) He said to him, “Go away.”

He ordered him to go away.

　 (3) Mother said to me, “Come back before 10:00.”

Mother told me to go back before 10:00.

　 (4) He said , “ Don’t make so much noise, boys.”

　　 He told the boys not to make so much noise.

*转述祈使句时，要将祈使句的动词原形变为带to的不定式，并在不定式的前面根据句子的意思加上tell, ask, order等动词，如果祈使句为否定式，在不定式的前面加 not 。

注意：1)不定式的否定形式中，not必须放在to前面。

2)祈使句间接引语的引述动词除了ask, tell, order外，也可根据情况使用advise, remind, warn等。

E.g.. “Remember to switch off all the lights.”　 She said.

　 She remembered me to switch off all the lights.

　 “Don’t make the same mistake any more. ”　 she said.

　 She told / asked / warned me not to make the same mistake any more.

另外，还要注意指示代词、时间状语、地点状语、语序等的变化。
