Question

Which of the following is an imperative sentence?

• A. Close the window, will you?
• B. Pass me the plate.
• C. Please sit down.
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

The sentence is option C makes a request while the one in option B gives a command. Thus, both of these are imperative sentences.

Now, some imperative sentences can end with a question mark. However, these do not pose a question. The question mark is instead a part of what is called a "tag question". The sentence in option A ends with a tag question - "will you?". The tag question is usually used to make a command sound more polite. It is not a question, but a command given by the speaker. The sentence, then, is an imperative sentence.

Since all of the sentences are imperative, option D is the correct answer.
