All questions of Framing Questions for Class 6 Exam
Explanation:
Question tags:
- Question tags are short questions at the end of a sentence used to confirm information or to seek agreement.
- They usually consist of an auxiliary verb and a pronoun.
Formation of question tag:
- If the main sentence is positive, the question tag is negative, and vice versa.
- If the main sentence contains an auxiliary verb, the question tag is formed using the main verb.
Answer breakdown:
- The main sentence is "My brothers will never agree to this."
- The auxiliary verb in the main sentence is "will."
- To form the question tag, we use the main verb "agree."
- Since the main sentence is positive, the question tag should be negative.
- The correct question tag for the given sentence is "will they."
Therefore, the appropriate question tag to complete the sentence is "My brothers will never agree to this, will they?"
