  • 2. 

    You have cleaned your bike,_____________________?

    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "haven't you". This is because the phrase "haven't you" is used as a tag question in this sentence. A tag question is a short question added at the end of a sentence to confirm or seek agreement from the listener. In this case, "haven't you" is used to seek confirmation from the listener that they have indeed cleaned their bike.

    John and Max don't like maths,_____________________?

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "do they." This is because the question is a negative statement, stating that John and Max don't like maths. In order to form a question tag, we need to use the auxiliary verb "do" in the same tense as the main verb (don't) and invert the subject and auxiliary verb. Therefore, the correct question tag is "do they," which is used to confirm or seek agreement with the negative statement.

    Explanation
    The given correct answer "aren't they" is a tag question that is used to confirm or seek agreement with a previous statement.

The tag question "aren't they" is used to confirm this statement and implies that the speaker expects agreement or confirmation from the listener.

    He could have bought a new car,___________________________?

    Explanation
    The given statement is an example of a tag question. In a tag question, the auxiliary verb is used to create a question that seeks confirmation or agreement. In this case, the main statement is "He could have bought a new car." The tag question "couldn't he?" is added to seek confirmation or agreement from the listener. The correct answer "couldn't he" agrees with the statement and completes the tag question.

    Mary didn't do her homework last Monday,_________________? 

    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "did she." This is because the question is in the negative form, "Mary didn't do her homework last Monday," and in English, when we want to make a question from a negative statement, we use the auxiliary verb "did" before the subject. Therefore, the correct question form is "Did Mary do her homework last Monday?" The answer to this question would be "did she," using the auxiliary verb "did" again before the subject "she."

    Explanation
    The given answer "don't we" is correct because it is a tag question that is used to seek confirmation or agreement from the listener. In this context, the statement "We often watch TV in the afternoon" is positive, and the tag question "don't we" is used to confirm if the listener also watches TV in the afternoon. The use of "we" in the tag question implies that the speaker is including themselves in the statement and seeking agreement from others.
