Answer:

Lincoln was the "captain" of the US. Without him, the nation was "lost at sea" not knowing what to do.

In my view this statement fits best: b.When a ship captain dies, it is a tragedy, because he is the leader of the boat, just as Lincoln was the leader of the country. Lincoln was a strong and great leader who led America to the success. Every one depended on him just like the crew on its captain. He had a power and people respected him. That's why he's the captain.

fenix001 [56]

I'm not sure if there were specific answer choices but using complex words actually makes your statement rather unclear, especially assuming they are words the average person wouldn't know or understand.

Use the drop-down menus to indicate whether each sentence is in the subjunctive mood. I would go for a walk, if it were not rain
Vika [28.1K]
Subjunctive mood is used to express wishes and possibilities, whereas on the other hand, indicative mood is used for facts. So let's go through all of these sentences:
1. I would go for a walk if it weren't raining - this is subjunctive. The form <em>weren't </em>used as a possibility is indicative of subjunctive mood. This person <em>wishes </em>he could go for a walk, but cannot because it is raining

2. I wish you continued at your job - this is also subjunctive. The form <em>continued is </em>is indicative of subjunctive mood. This person <em>wishes </em>something happened, but it didn't.

3. Brett wants Molly and Trent to study with him. - this is indicative. It is a fact that this person wants, so this is not subjunctive.

4. Coach recommends that we run two laps around the track. - this is subjunctive. The coach <em>wishes </em>something would happen - he is going to make his students to what he wishes them to do. 

With verbs such as recommend, wish, suggest, demand, etc., subjunctive mood is used.
