Which of these sentences is in the subjunctive mood?

Answer
A
You seem to get sick very often.
B
Are you feeling any better today?
C
I heard you were out sick yesterday.
D
I wish you would take better care of yourself.

Explanation

The subjunctive mood expresses a wish, suggestion, or situation that is not simply stated as a fact. “I wish you would take better care of yourself” expresses a wish, so choice D is in the subjunctive mood. The other sentences ask questions or describe what seems to be happening or happened.
