OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

I think your right :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks! :)

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

No problem.

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Incorrect.

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Exclamatory: of or relating to a sudden cry or remark, especially one expressing surprise, anger, or pain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Incorrect? Then it's D.

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you sure??

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Well, exclamatory refers to anger or pain as the given definition said...

OpenStudy (conqueror):

And that sentence does not refer to anger or pain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No... But it refers to happiness!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Conqueror You really think the sentence needs a period? LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No offense tho... :P

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

This has been the greatest day of my life! This has been the greatest day of my life. I still think it should have an exclamation point...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And yes, I do believe it is B.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, it's exclamatory? @AnswerMyQuestions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Only 2 choices have exclamation points, and on choice A, imperative means crucial, and that wouldn't be the answer.

OpenStudy (superflytyguy):

This has been the greatest day in my life!

OpenStudy (superflytyguy):

look up exclaim, to give you a better understanding

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Okay, my bad.

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

Eh, no problem. Don't forget to close the question Blossom :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's okay, and thanks everyone!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Closing it now :)
