To find the command verbs, we need to look for action words that tell someone to do something. These sentences are called "imperative sentences." The subject is usually "you," but it is hidden.
Here is the step-by-step check for each sentence:
1.
Stop yelling at your sister! -> "Stop" is the command.
2.
Go to the store and
buy a loaf of bread... -> "Go" and "buy" are commands.
3.
Add three scoops of sugar... -> "Add" is the command.
4. Do not
beg for a toy... -> "Beg" is the command (part of "do not beg").
5.
Bake a cake for the party... -> "Bake" is the command.
6.
Bring me a clean set of clothing... -> "Bring" is the command.
7.
Behave like a gentlemen... -> "Behave" is the command.
8. Always
close the door... -> "Close" is the command.
9.
Chop up the vegetables... -> "Chop" is the command.
10.
Catch the dog and
put him inside... -> "Catch" and "put" are commands.
11. ...
crouch down behind something... -> "Crouch" is the command.
12.
Crack the window... -> "Crack" is the command.
13.

14. Please

16.

17.

18.
Fold all three loads of laundry and
put them away... -> "Fold" and "put" are commands.
19. She will get the cake two hours before the party begins. -> This sentence talks *about* someone else ("She"). It does not give a command to "you." There is no command verb here.
20. At six o'clock
go to the library to
pick up your sister. -> "Go" and "pick" are commands.
