A.Imperative
B.Assertive
C.Exclamatory
D.Interrogative

Answer 1

Hint: Go through the options and try to understand what each of them signify, then choose the one which best expresses the sentence.

Complete answer:
A sentence is a group of words that makes complete sense. It is of 4 types: Imperative, Assertive, Exclamatory, Interrogative. It is essential to know all the types of sentences, to be able to answer it correctly. Now, let us go through the options and analyze what they mean-

Option A ‘Imperative’ is incorrect : Imperative sentences are requests, suggestions, advice, or commands which often appear to be missing subjects and use a verb to begin the sentence. Thus is the sentence that we are asking something or requesting or advicing so here we are not using this as the correct option and it is incorrect.

Option B is incorrect : Here the assertive sentence means.The sentence which declares a statement, feeling, opinion, incident, event, history, or anything is called an assertive sentence. Here it is not the correct type of sentence that is being used so we are not using this type of sentence for the given question.

 Option C is correct : Here Exclamatory is the type of sentence which shows the excitement about the place by describing the place as beautiful. Such sentences that convey strong emotion or excitement are called an exclamatory sentence. So we use this as the proper option for the given question.

Option D is incorrect : The option Interrogative is incorrect because the sentence asks the direct question.Here the given sentence is not asking the question it is just showing the excitement.

Therefore the correct answer is option ‘A’.

Note: Usually, an exclamatory sentence will have an exclamation mark in it. Just like how we had in the given statement, whereas an interrogative sentence has a question mark at the end. Remembering these small clues may help you identify the sentence easily.
