Question 14 • ELPGEQ3 M/J Language Arts 3 - 1001070 HCPS v24

Which sentence is in the subjunctive mood?

Answer
A
You don’t usually arrive on time.
B
Are you planning to arrive on time tomorrow?
C
I insist you arrive on time tomorrow.
D
Come on time.

Explanation

The subjunctive is used in some clauses expressing a demand, recommendation, or insistence. In “I insist you arrive on time tomorrow,” the verb “arrive” is in its base form after “insist,” marking the subjunctive. “Come on time” is a command, so it is imperative, not subjunctive.
