"You"
The understood subject is "you." The complete sentences would be "You stop. You look. You listen."
It can be used in an imperative sense, but it is the usethat is critical, not the verb. Many verbs can be meaningfully used in imperative sentences. Compare: Whenever I walk along Narragansett Beach, I find interesting pebbles and shells. and: Find your money now, son, or you will not be able to buy your ticket.Usually, when the subject of the sentence is you (understood, not written or spoken), the sentence is an imperative. In Find your money now... it is understood or implied that the subject is 'You'.
By following subject-verb agreement rules, you ensure that your sentences are grammatically correct and clear, which makes your writing more coherent and easier to understand. Consistent use of subject-verb agreement also demonstrates your mastery of grammar, improving the overall quality of your written work.
