Answer this question please:

Section 13(d) of the securities exchange act of 1934 requires anyone who buys more than 5 percent of a company's stock make a public isclosure of the purchase.

a) make
b)will also make
c)to make
d)must make
e)must then make


The OA for this is C.

though 'requires to' is the idiom

Doesnt this come under the subjunctive rule which says the infinite form of the verb(without 'to') should be used.

hi couber, i think for the choice A to be correct the orignal sentence must use 'that'

Section 13(d) of the securities exchange act of 1934 requires that anyone who buys more than 5 percent of a company's stock make a public isclosure of the purchase.

since that is missing, the best possible answer is choice C

IMO C
Either it should be requires that anyone...make....
or requires anyone....to make....

SC tip

Require to and require that are correct

Require + to can be used with passive and active

require + that can be used only with active

HTH!
