Question 31

Which of the following sentences uses a WRONG tag-question?

Solution

Share

A tag question is a short question at the end of a sentence, generally to seek confirmation or agreement. 

While all other options have appropriate question tags, option D has an incorrect one. The tag question's subject, "it," does not match the main clause's subject, "he." 

A more appropriate tag here would be "doesn't he?"

Therefore, Option D is the correct answer.
