La salud: Health situations with tú commands and subjunctive

Luis is studying to be a doctor. He is very knowledgeable. In his small village, his friends often call on him to get advice on minor health issues. His younger sister Adela has a habit of repeating Luis’s advice but in her own way. Complete Luis’s responses using tú commands (affirmative or negative). For Adela’s responses, choose and conjugate the introductory verb in the present tense for the first blank, and choose an appropriate response with the present subjunctive for the second blank.

There are 8 situations in the present tense.

Example:

Column A: Haz tú ejercicio / Toma tú una aspirina

Column B: Mandar / Sugerir (verbs can be used in any order)

Column C: hagas ejercicio / tú tomes una aspirina
