His wife begged him not to take risk of going out in the stormy night.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is OPTION 4 - His wife said, “Please, don’t take risk of going out in the stormy night”.
-
Maintaining the original intent: The direct form must preserve the meaning of the indirect sentence, where the wife is begging him not to take a risk.
-
Correct grammar: "Don’t take risk of going out" is grammatically correct and matches the structure of a direct plea.
Thus, the best choice is: “Please, don’t take risk of going out in the stormy night.”
OTHER OPTIONS

“Please, don’t take risk of went out in the stormy night”: Incorrect because "went" is the wrong tense; it should be "going."
-
“Please, don’t risking going out in the stormy night”: Incorrect because "don’t risking" is ungrammatical; it should be "don’t risk."
-
“Please, does not take risk of going out in the stormy night”: Incorrect because "does not" is grammatically wrong in this context; it should be "don’t."
