الإجابة الصحيحة: (ج) can you

الشرح: A negative sentence takes a positive tag with the same auxiliary: can't → can you.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (أ) doesn't he

الشرح: A positive sentence takes a negative tag. There is no auxiliary, so we use do/does/did: works → doesn't he.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (ب) aren't I

الشرح: With 'I am' in a positive sentence, the tag is 'aren't I'.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (ب) hasn't she

الشرح: Here 'she's' means 'she has' (has + past participle 'left'), so the tag uses the same auxiliary: hasn't she.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (أ) won't they

الشرح: 'Will' is the auxiliary, and a positive sentence takes a negative tag: won't they.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (ب) weren't there

الشرح: Like 'There is …, isn't there?', a sentence with 'There were' keeps 'there' in the tag and uses the same verb: weren't there.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (ج) wasn't it

الشرح: Use the same auxiliary as in the sentence: 'was built' → wasn't it. A positive sentence takes a negative tag.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (د) haven't they

الشرح: With someone/everyone/nobody we use "they" in the tag, and "they" takes "have". The verb is present perfect, so: haven't they.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (د) didn't they

الشرح: "Used to" has no auxiliary in the sentence and is past, so the tag uses "did": didn't they.

الإجابة الصحيحة: (د) is there

الشرح: "No" makes the sentence negative, so the tag is positive. A sentence beginning with "There is" keeps "there" in the tag.
