Which of the following sentences represents the imperative mood?

  1. I insist you go.

  2. Go now!

  3. If I were you, I would go.

  4. I hope he goes.

The correct answer is: Go now!

The sentence "Go now!" is indeed a clear example of the imperative mood. The imperative mood is used to give commands, instructions, or requests. In this case, "Go" serves as a direct command to someone, coupled with the word "now" to indicate urgency, making it a straightforward imperative expression. The other sentences do not express commands or requests. "I insist you go" conveys a strong assertion but does not directly command someone to do something. "If I were you, I would go" is a conditional statement expressing a hypothetical situation, and "I hope he goes" communicates a wish or desire rather than a directive. Hence, the imperative mood is effectively captured by "Go now!" which makes it the correct choice.
