Question

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

• A. He has few reasons for saying no to the match, has he?
• B. You like to play, don’t you?
• C. There’s little point in doing anything about the match, is there?
• D. Moreover, he plays well, isn’t it?
• E. Nobody has called for you, have they?

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Recall the Rule of Tag-Questions 
- A tag-question must agree with the subject of the sentence. 
- If the main clause is positive, the tag must be negative; if the main clause is negative, the tag must be positive. 
 

Step 2: Check Each Option
- Option 1: “He has few reasons..., has he?” → Correct, because “few” implies a negative sense, so the positive tag fits. 
- Option 2: “You like to play, don’t you?” → Correct, positive statement + negative tag. 
- Option 3: “There’s little point..., is there?” → Correct, “little” is negative in meaning, so positive tag works. 
- Option 4: “He plays well, isn’t it?” → ❌ Wrong. Subject is “he,” so the tag must also match: “doesn’t he?” not “isn’t it?” 
- Option 5: “Nobody has called..., have they?” → Correct, “nobody” is singular but takes plural tag “they” in English usage. 
 

Step 3: Conclusion
The incorrect tag is in Option 4. The correct version should be: “He plays well, doesn’t he?”

Final Answer:
\[ \boxed{\text{Option (D): Moreover, he plays well, isn’t it?}} \]
