The correct answer is Option (4) - (B) Only
- Question Tag Rules:
- A question tag is a short question added to the end of a statement, usually to confirm or check information.
- If the main statement is positive, the question tag is negative, and vice versa.
- Analysis of Options:
- (A) He plays cricket, don't he?
-
- Incorrect: The subject "He" is singular, so it should use "doesn't" instead of "don't."
- (B) He plays cricket, doesn't he?
- Correct: The statement is positive ("He plays cricket"), so the question tag is negative ("doesn't he"). It matches the subject and verb correctly.
- (C) He plays cricket, can he?
-
- Incorrect: This changes the meaning to asking whether he is able to play cricket, which is not a confirmation of the initial statement.
- (D) He plays cricket, will not he?
-
- Incorrect: The correct contraction is "won't," so it should be "won't he?" This makes it grammatically incorrect.
