Which verb form correctly completes this sentence?
Como le gusta la poesía, le recomiendo que __________ las obras de Pablo Neruda. A. leamos B. lean C. lea D. leáis
Answer: C.) lea
Entire sentence: Como le gusta la poesía, le recomiendo que lea las obras de Pablo Neruda.
Translation 3rd person: As he likes poetry, I recommend him to read the works of Pablo Neruda.
Translation 2nd formal person : As you like poetry, I recommend you read the works of Pablo Neruda.
Explanation: The indirect object pronoun of the verbs "gustar" and "recomendar" is "le", that is the third person "le = a él, a ella", so the verb "leer" must be also conjugated in the third person. Él lea. The formal second person in Spanish is "Usted", that is conjugated the same way that third person. Usted lea. That is the imperative mode of the verb "leer".
