What kind of sentence is the following ?
And what was that in his hand ?
Answer: A
The sentence is interrogative.
'And what was that in his hand ?' asks a question: it begins with the question word 'what', has the inverted order 'was that', and ends in a question mark. The narrator is asking himself what the boy holds.
An exclamatory sentence would express strong feeling and end with an exclamation mark, such as 'What a sight that was!'. A negative sentence contains 'not' or 'no', and an assertive sentence makes a statement. This one does neither.
