Question

Select the option that will improve the underlined part of the given sentence:

If I was the queen, I would give a handsome sum towards education.

Accepted Answer

The sentence is a second conditional sentence used to talk about hypothetical or unreal situations in the present or future. The correct form for the 'if' clause in such sentences is 'were' (subjunctive mood), not 'was'. Therefore, 'If I were the queen' is grammatically correct. Other options either change the tense incorrectly or do not fit the conditional structure.
