‘Imaginary’ describes something that is created by and exists only in the mind, that is not real whereas imaginative means new, original and clever. Hence, option ‘B’ imaginary’ is correct. In sentence 2 the compound word 'six-month' is used as an adjective and therefore it should be in the singular. In sentence 3 primarily means ‘mainly’ and primary means ‘most important’.
