A.  I wish it were possible to go to the movie tomorrow.

The subjunctive mood is when the action is contrary to fact or does not exist.  This is frequently indicated with the appearance of the words “if” and “wish.”  When the words “if” and “wish” appear, the verb “was” should always be in the plural form regardless of whether the subject is singular or plural.  For instance, you would typically pair “I” with “was” because “I” is singular.  However, when “if/wish” appear, “was” will need to be plural as in the following:


CORRECT: I wish I were taller.  

INCORRECT: I wish I was taller.


CORRECT: If she were there.

INCORRECT: If she was there.
