Answer 2

To match the sentences to the correct question tags, we need to identify the appropriate question tag for each sentence. A question tag is a short question that is added to the end of a statement to turn it into a question. The question tag should match the statement in terms of tense and subject.

Let's go through each sentence and determine the correct question tag:

1) John hadn't been to Rome before. The correct question tag for this sentence is "had he?" since the statement is in the past perfect tense and the subject is "John." So, the correct match is: i. had he?

2) Sit down. The correct question tag for this sentence is "won't you?" since the statement is in the imperative form and the subject is "you." So, the correct match is: d. won't you?

3) Let's have a party. The correct question tag for this sentence is "shall we?" since the statement is in the imperative form and the subject is "let's." So, the correct match is: b. shall we?

4) I'm right. The correct question tag for this sentence is "aren't I?" since the statement is in the present tense and the subject is "I." So, the correct match is: c. aren't I?

5) Simon can play the drums. The correct question tag for this sentence is "can't he?" since the statement is in the present tense and the subject is "Simon." So, the correct match is: f. can't he?

6) Don't be late. The correct question tag for this sentence is "will you?" since the statement is in the imperative form and the subject is "you." So, the correct match is: h. will you?

7) She is studying. The correct question tag for this sentence is "isn't she?" since the statement is in the present continuous tense and the subject is "she." So, the correct match is: g. isn't she?

8) There aren't enough chairs for everybody. The correct question tag for this sentence is "are there?" since the statement is in the present tense and the subject is "there." So, the correct match is: e. are there?

9) They didn't have salad for lunch. The correct question tag for this sentence is "did they?" since the statement is in the past tense and the subject is "they." So, the correct match is: j. did they?

10) That's your book. The correct question tag for this sentence is "isn't it?" since the statement is in the present tense and the subject is "that." So, the correct match is: a. isn't it?

Therefore, the correct matches are: 1) i. had he? 2) d. won't you? 3) b. shall we? 4) c. aren't I? 5) f. can't he? 6) h. will you? 7) g. isn't she? 8) e. are there? 9) j. did they? 10) a. isn't it?
