1. Tono likes flowers,_____?

Explanation

The tag question should use the auxiliary verb (helping verb) from the main statement. "Likes" uses the auxiliary "does."  The tag question should use the appropriate subject pronoun, which is "he" for Tono. If the statement is positive, the tag is negative (and vice versa). The statement is positive ("likes"), so the tag is negative ("doesn't").

About This Quiz

2. James Mar didn't come here yesterday,_____?

Explanation

The given question is an example of a tag question, which is used to confirm or seek agreement with a statement. In this case, the statement is "James Mar didn't come here yesterday." The correct tag question to use in this situation is "did he," as it matches the negative form of the verb in the statement.

Submit

3. Jenny looks very sad,_____?

Explanation

The correct answer is "doesn't she". This is because when using an auxiliary verb like "do" or "does" to form a question, we invert the subject and the auxiliary verb. In this case, the subject is "Jenny" and the auxiliary verb is "does". Therefore, the correct question form is "doesn't she" instead of "don't she" or "is she".

Submit

4. I'm a good student,_____?
 

Explanation

"Aren't I" is the contraction of "am I not." While "amn't I" might seem logical, it's not grammatically correct. The tag question should use the same subject as the statement ("I"). If the statement is positive, the tag is negative (and vice versa). The statement is positive ("I'm"), so the tag is negative ("aren't").

Submit

5. I'm not invited to the wedding,____?

Explanation

The question is asking for a completion of the sentence "I'm not invited to the wedding, ____?" The correct answer is "am I." This is because the sentence is in the first person, and the correct form of the verb "to be" to use with "I" is "am." Additionally, the question tag "am I" is used to seek confirmation or agreement from the listener.

Submit

6. Chompoo and Nott work,______?

Explanation

The given correct answer is "don't they". This is because the question is asking about the work of Chompoo and Nott, and the phrase "don't they" is a negative question tag that is commonly used in English to confirm or seek agreement. In this case, it is used to seek agreement about the fact that Chompoo and Nott work.

Submit

7. Everything is all right,_____?

Explanation

"Everything is all right, isn't it?" is a question tag used to seek confirmation or agreement. It reflects uncertainty and invites a response. The positive statement is followed by a negative tag, creating balance. It's a common conversational tool to confirm the accuracy or status of a situation.

Submit

8. That dog's very noisy,_____?

Explanation

The correct answer is "isn't it." This is because the sentence is asking for confirmation or agreement about the dog being noisy. "Isn't it" is a common way to seek agreement or confirmation in English.

Submit

9. I have never been there,_____?
 

Explanation

The correct answer is "have I." This is because the sentence is in the present perfect tense, which is formed using the auxiliary verb "have" followed by the subject pronoun "I" and the past participle of the main verb. In this case, the main verb is "been." Therefore, the correct sentence structure is "have I been there."

Submit

10. I'd go there,_____?

Explanation

This question is an example of a tag question, which is used to confirm or seek agreement with a statement. The phrase "I'd go there" suggests a willingness or desire to go to a certain place. The correct tag question to use in this case is "wouldn't I," which is a contraction of "would I not." This tag question seeks agreement with the statement, implying that the speaker expects the listener to also have a desire or willingness to go to that place.
