3.
The teacher ordered the boys to sit down
4.
The teacher requested the boys to sit down

Correct Answer: The teacher ordered the boys to sit down

An imperative in direct speech becomes an infinitive construction in indirect speech, and since the teacher gives a command, "ordered" is the correct reporting verb. "Requested" changes the force of the utterance, and the other options are structurally incorrect.
