Question 17 • AA-F26 Physical Science

Which sentence is subjunctive but not conditional?

Answer
A
If I were rich, I would buy you a pony.
B
If it stops raining, we will go to the park.
C
I could help you wash the dishes.
D
I expect that you be here by eleven.

Explanation

In “I expect that you be here by eleven,” the verb “be” is in the subjunctive mood, expressing an expectation or requirement. The sentence does not state a condition. Choice A uses the subjunctive “were” in an if-clause and pairs it with the conditional “would buy,” so it is conditional as well.
