Answer
1 Don’t forget your keys when you leave. – “Don’t” is followed by a base verb, not “to + verb.”
2 Don’t be afraid to speak your mind. – Negative imperative uses “Don’t,” not “Be not.”
3 Let’s start the meeting now. – “Let’s” is followed by the base verb.
4 Don’t be rude. – Imperatives do not take question tags.
5 Please sit down and wait for your turn. – Remove “to”; use the base form after “Please.”
6 Don’t touch the wires – they’re dangerous! – Negative imperative must start with “Don’t.”
7 Be quiet! – Imperative uses the adjective “quiet,” not “quiets.”
8 Don’t talk while the teacher is speaking. – After “Don’t,” use the base verb, not “-ing.”
9 Let’s go for a walk after lunch. – “Let’s + base verb” is correct.
10 Don’t be so nervous; everything will be fine. – Negative imperative requires “Don’t be.”
11 Don’t be late for your appointment. – The pronoun “you” is unnecessary in imperatives.
12 Let’s take a taxi instead of walking. – Remove “we”; “Let’s” already means “let us.”
13 Please don’t open the door; it’s windy. – Use “don’t” for negative requests.
