    It's not clear what this dialogue is about.
    You missed some letters in the verbs.

    A:Нужно закрыть дверь.
    B: (Silence)
    A: Нужно закрыть.
    B: (Silence(.
    A: Закрывай!

    The last is the command form.

    I am sorry for my incorrectness and unclearness.

    The dialog should be as follows:

    A:Нужно закрыть дверь.
    B: (Silence)
    A: Нужно зак
    рыть.
    B: (Silence)

    A: Закрывать!

    A tells B to shut the door twice but B does not react so A emphasizes the command by using the imperfective infinitive.
    Is the dialog correct grammatically?
