Explanation:
We are given a matching task: draw a line to match each sentence to the correct sentence type. The four types are:
-
Declarative: States facts or opinions. Ends with a period (.).
-
Imperative: Gives commands or instructions. Usually ends with a period, but sometimes an exclamation mark (!).
-
Interrogative: Asks a question. Ends with a question mark (?).
-
Exclamatory: Shows strong emotion. Ends with an exclamation mark (!).
Now let’s look at each sentence and decide its type:
1.
Get me a puppy, please.
→ This is a request/command. Even though it has “please”, it’s still giving an instruction. Ends with a period.
✔ Imperative
2.
I went to the mall.
→ States a fact. Ends with a period.
✔ Declarative
3.
Do you have a dog?
→ Asks a yes/no question. Ends with a question mark.
✔ Interrogative
4.
The mall is amazing!
→ Expresses excitement/strong feeling. Ends with an exclamation mark.
✔ Exclamatory
5.
Kylie likes milkshakes.
→ States a fact (opinion/fact). Ends with a period.
✔ Declarative
6.
Have you been to the mall?
→ Asks a question. Ends with a question mark.
✔ Interrogative
Now match them:
- Get me a puppy, please. → Imperative
- I went to the mall. → Declarative
- Do you have a dog? → Interrogative
- The mall is amazing! → Exclamatory
- Kylie likes milkshakes. → Declarative
- Have you been to the mall? → Interrogative
Final Answer:
Get me a puppy, please. → Imperative
I went to the mall. → Declarative
Do you have a dog? → Interrogative
The mall is amazing! → Exclamatory
Kylie likes milkshakes. → Declarative
Have you been to the mall? → Interrogative
