Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option C i.e. isn't it?.
- The error lies in part C of the statement because of the wrong use of the Question Tag.
Concept-
- We need to replace "isn't it " with "haven't you" for making the statement grammatically correct.
- A question tag is made by the "auxiliary verb + subject " adding at the end of the statement.
- As in the ginve statement, the auxiliary verb is "have" and the subject is "you" that question tag will be "haven't you".
The correct sentence will be-
You have been working very hard for the past two years. haven't you?
