Answer 1

The example with an incorrect shift in mood is:

We should go to a movie, but we should have dinner first.

This sentence starts in a more assertive mood ("should go") and has a more tentative construction with "but we should have dinner first." The lack of consistency in expressing obligation or certainty can lead to a feeling of awkwardness in mood.

The other sentences maintain a consistent mood throughout.
