The Correct Option is A

Approach Solution - 1

The original sentence gives a plain command: go to his room and study, with no extra tone described beyond "ordered."
Converting to direct speech should preserve that same order of instruction, changing only "his" to "your" for direct address.
"His father said, 'Go to your room and study.'" does exactly this, while the other options either reorder the instruction or add tone words like "firmly" or urgency like "right now" that the original sentence never mentions.
Therefore, the correct answer is His father said, "Go to your room and study."

Approach Solution -2

A precise way to check these conversions is to line up each option's word order against the original sentence's word order: "go to his room and study."

  1. His father said, "Go to your room and study.": Word order matches exactly: go, to your room, and study, in the same sequence as the original.
  2. His father said to him, "Go and study in your room.": The order is reversed to "go and study" before "in your room," not matching the original sequence.
  3. His father shouted, "Go right now to your study room.": This introduces new words ("right now," "study room") not present in the original at all.
  4. His father said firmly, "Go and study in your room.": Same reordering issue as option (B), with an added tone word besides.

Matching word order to the original sentence singles out the first option.

Therefore, the correct answer is His father said, "Go to your room and study."
