Explanation

The given correct answer "did they" is the correct question tag to use after the sentence "Someone helped me." A question tag is used to confirm or seek agreement with a statement. In this case, the sentence is in the affirmative form, so the question tag should be in the negative form. Since the auxiliary verb "did" is used in the question tag, it indicates that the main verb "helped" is in the past tense. Additionally, the pronoun "they" is used to refer to an unknown or unspecified person. Therefore, "did they" is the appropriate question tag to use in this context.

Submit

19. 5. Someone is there,.............................?

Explanation

A tag question is a short question added to the end of a statement to seek confirmation or agreement. In this case, the tag question is formed by using the negative contraction "aren't" (are not) and the pronoun "they." This is because "someone" is a singular pronoun, but the tag question uses the plural pronoun "they" to maintain gender neutrality. The tag question seeks confirmation or agreement from the listener that someone is indeed present.
