To form a question tag, we typically use the auxiliary verb from the main clause, in this case, "is", and make it negative or positive to match the main clause. Since the statement "the car isn't in the garage" is negative, the question tag will be "is it?".
2. you are John, aren't you?
In this case, the statement is positive, so the question tag will be negative. We use the auxiliary verb "are" from the main clause, making it negative by adding "n't", and then add the pronoun "you" before it to make it a question tag. So, the correct question tag is "aren't you?".
3. she went to the library yesterday, didn't she?
Similar to the previous example, the main clause is positive, so the question tag will be negative. The auxiliary verb "did" is used in the past tense to match the main clause, and then we add "n't" to make it negative. Finally, we add the pronoun "she" before the question tag to form a complete question. Therefore, the correct question tag is "didn't she?".
4. he didn't recognize me, did he?
Again, the main clause is negative, so the question tag will be positive. We use the auxiliary verb "did" in past tense, and then add the pronoun "he" before it to form the question tag. Therefore, the correct question tag is "did he?".
5. caps pollute the environment, don't they?
The main clause is positive, so the question tag will be negative. Since there is no auxiliary verb in the main clause, we use the auxiliary verb "do" in the present tense to form the question tag. Then we add "n't" to make it negative, and the pronoun "they" before it. Therefore, the correct question tag is "don't they?".
6. Mr. Pritchard has been to Scotland recently, hasn't he?
In this case, the main clause is positive, so the question tag will be negative. The auxiliary verb "has" from the main clause is used in the present perfect tense, and then we add "n't" to make it negative. Finally, we add the pronoun "he" before the question tag. Hence, the correct question tag is "hasn't he?".
7. The trip is very expensive, isn't it?
The main clause is positive, so the question tag will be negative. We use the auxiliary verb "is" from the main clause and add "n't" to make it negative. Lastly, we add the pronoun "it" before the question tag. Therefore, the correct question tag is "isn't it?".
8. He won't tell her, will he?
The main clause is negative, so the question tag will be positive. The auxiliary verb "will" from the main clause is used, and then we repeat it in the question tag to form a complete question. Therefore, the correct question tag is "will he?".
9. Hugh had a red car, didn't he?
The main clause is positive, so the question tag will be negative. Since there is no auxiliary verb in the main clause, we use the auxiliary verb "do" in the past tense to form the question tag. Then we add "n't" to make it negative, and mention the pronoun "he" before it. Therefore, the correct question tag is "didn't he?".
