Question

Using the word(s) given in the brackets, form a sentence in the imperative mood that expresses a command:

_______ in that river. (not/swim)

• A. You should not swim in that river.
• B. You are not swimming in that river.
• C. Not swimming in that river.
• D. Do not swim in that river.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Do not swim in that river.

Option D is correct. The sentence is a command that leaves no room for discussion and is directed at an implied subject "you". It is an order to not swim.

Options A and B are incorrect as they are not commands. Nor are they in the imperative mood. They are just statements.

Option C is incorrect as it is an incomplete sentence. It does not have a subject.
