Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Kindly lower the volume of the television after ten o’clock.

- This sentence makes a polite request with Kindly. The verb “lower” comes next, and the subject is left out.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: You must wear a helmet when you ride a scooter. — Incorrect. It has its own subject, “You”, and states a rule, so it is an assertive sentence.
Option 3: May you enjoy every moment of your holiday in Goa! — Incorrect. It begins with “May” and wishes someone well, so it is an optative sentence.
Option 4: Does the night train to Nagpur stop at Wardha? — Incorrect. It asks a question, so it is an interrogative sentence.
