Eugenie walked into the kitchen with a big smile on her face. Her parents, brother, and sister were already at the table. "Good morning to the world!" she said. "Tim, hand me the orange juice. What does everyone have planned for today?" An imperative sentence is a command that can end with an exclamation point (!) or a period (.). Sentence A and D are declarative sentences, which is a statement that tells facts. Sentence B is an interrogative sentence, which is a sentence that asks a question.
