Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
| List-I | List-II | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| (A) Bring me a glass of water, will you? | (III) will you | A sentence that makes a request or gives an order, like “Bring me”, takes “will you”. |
| (B) Someone has parked a car in front of our gate, haven’t they? | (IV) haven’t they | Someone becomes “they” in the tag, and “they” takes “have”. The sentence is positive, so the tag is “haven’t they”. |
| (C) Karan never shares his class notes, does he? | (I) does he | Never makes the sentence negative, so the tag is positive. “Shares” has no helping verb, so the tag uses “does”. |
| (D) The kids were splashing in the puddles all evening, weren’t they? | (II) weren’t they | Were is the helping verb and the sentence is positive, so the tag is “weren’t”. “The kids” becomes “they”. |
