Grammar: Question Tags

Question:

Out of the four alternatives, choose the one that suits the best as a question tag for the sentence:

She rarely attends the class, _______ ?

Options:

Does she

Isn't it

Is it

Doesn't she

Correct Answer:

Does she

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 1: Does she

In English, a question tag is a short question added to the end of a statement. It's used to invite agreement, confirmation, or a response from the listener. The choice of question tag depends on the statement.

The sentence “She rarely attends the class” is negative in meaning because words like rarely, seldom, hardly make the statement negative, even though no “not” is used.

Therefore, a positive question tag is required → “does she?”
