We start a sentence with the base form of a verb when we want to tell people to do something．We add ‘don’t’ in front of the verb when we want to tell people not to do something．Imperative sentences do not normally include a subject, because the subject ‘you’ is implied. However, a noun or pronoun can sometimes be used to identify the person receiving an order or instruction, e.g., the speaker wants to attract Mary’s attention and so he/she says, ‘Mary, don’t push.’ / ‘Don’t push, Mary.’. To be polite，we always use ‘please’ with the instructions．
