Answer 1

The correct option is A The organiser told the band members that they should come and play at their concert.

The correct answer is, ‘The organiser told the band members that they should come and play at their concert’. This is because the sentence reports what the organiser said by changing the possessive adjective ‘our’ to ‘their’.
