Question 16

Fill in the blank with correct form of the verb.

If I _______ a doctor, I would serve the poor.

Solution

This sentence talks about an imaginary or unreal present situation, so the subjunctive form is used in the "if" clause. In such conditional sentences "were" is used with all subjects, including "I". Hence "If I were a doctor, I would serve the poor" is correct.
