The subjunctive mood is the best.

The subjunctive is rarely used in colloquial English. Totally irrelevant information, but... it is a relic from Latin, where there are many uses for a subjunctive. There is even a special conditional using the subjunctive mood that expresses the exact circumstances you described, which is usually called future less vivid.

The correct answer is D. Subjunctive

Explanation:

In English and other languages, there are different verb moods, these moods indicate if the information is a fact, a command, a request, etc. In the case of subjunctive mood refers to a set of grammatical forms that allow people to express some situation is not real this includes wishes, possibilities, opinions, emotions and other situations that are not likely to happen or have not happen yet, this is the case of some modal verbs such as will, can, could or might used to express possibilities, wishes  that are not considered as real and that are unlikely to come true. Although, the subjunctive mood includes many other grammatical forms. Thus, the mood that is used to express a wish or similar situations that are unlikely to come true is the subjunctive mood.

What is Toni Morrison's tone in "The Reader as Artist"
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

He uses a serious but friendly tone.

Explanation:

In the essay "The Reader as Artist" Toni Morrison reveals how delightful it is to have reading as a way of practicing art. In this essay he shows how reading as a skill is different from reading as an art.

In reading as a skill we can read the words of a text with mastery, but in reading as art we savor every detail of the text's construction, we reflect on the author's choices and we are able to visualize the characters, smells, flavors and the written environment in detail . In other words, we can affirm that reading as art is a form of immersion in the text, where we are taken completely to the right of the presented story and perceiving its smallest details.

In this essay Morrison uses a serious but friendly and sympathetic tone.

Is a parent leaving internal or external conflict
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

It can be both.

Explanation:

It hasn't happened to me, but I suppose it would a be a painful experience. It can be internal because the character might have turmoil with their feelings and how to adjust to the situation. This especially if they are a child who depend on their parents emotionally, financially, etc. In almost all aspects. The character might struggle wih themselves to understand what happened and why it happened. They can maybe blame themselves and get into self-conflict with themselves that turns into self hatred.

It can be a external problems if the child argues with their parent about this. Why they're leaving, for example. It depends on the authors estabishment of the relation between the child and parent. For example if the parent hates the child, they might shout at them and they might argue (remember external conflict is any conflict between the character and something/someone other than themselves)
