Select one or more answers a Indicative b Imperative c Interrogative d Conditional e Subjunctive Explanation 1 Choice A is interrogative because it asks a question. Choice B is indicative because is makes a declaration. Choice C is imperative because it gives a command. 2 Choice A and C are asking questions, so they are interrogative. Choice B is the only one that makes a direct command, so it is imperative. 3 Choice A is the only one that asks a question (see the question mark at the end), so it is interrogative. 4 Choice C is the correct answer because it makes a statement about something that COULD happen depending on certain conditions. Often, conditional sentences include an "IF" statement to specify the condition that must occur. 5 Choice A is subjunctive because it expresses a wish or desire. Notice also that the verb form "be" is used instead of "is." In subjective sentences, the verb form of be is often used in an unusual way. 6 Subjunctive is the correct answer because this is a statement that is contrary to fact. For example, this is an imaginary possibility. Also notice that it uses the verb in an unusual way, "were," instead of "was." Just because the word "IF" is used in the sentence, does not make it conditional. Because this is describing a hypothetical situation, it is appropriate to use the subjunctive mood instead.
