      Trabaja

    • C.

      Trabajé

    Correct Answer
    A. Trabaje
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "trabaje" because the verb "recomienda" is in the present tense, indicating that the recommendation is ongoing or habitual. When giving recommendations or suggestions, it is common to use the subjunctive form of the verb in Spanish. Therefore, "trabaje" is the correct form of the verb "trabajar" in the subjunctive mood.

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The phrase "yo quiero que" is a trigger for the subjunctive mood in Spanish. When expressing a desire or a request, the subjunctive is used to indicate uncertainty or unreality. Therefore, the correct answer is true because "yo quiero que" requires the subjunctive form of the verb that follows it.

    • B.

      Habla

    • C.

      Estudia

    Correct Answer
    A. Espero que
    Explanation
    The phrase "Espero que" brings on the subjunctive because it expresses a desire or hope for something that may or may not happen. The subjunctive is used to convey uncertainty or unreality, which is appropriate in this context. The other two options, "Habla" and "Estudia," do not require the subjunctive because they are indicative statements, expressing facts or actions that are certain or real.
