Question

Which of the following best describes an imperative sentence?

• A. The sentence makes a statement.
• B. The sentence makes a request.
• C. The sentence asks a question.
• D. The sentence gives an opinion.

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

The sentence makes a request.

Declarative sentences are used to make a statement or an opinion while interrogative sentences usually pose a question. Therefore options A, C and D are incorrect. Imperative sentences on the other hand usually make requests or give commands. This option B is the right answer.
