SSC GD 2023 PYQ — Question 17

SSC GD Constable (English) - 13 Jan 2023 - Shift 1 • English • Q17

Select the word segment that substitutes (replaces) the bracketed word segment correctly and completes the sentence meaningfully.

Nishtha writes very well, (didn't she)?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. doesn’t she.

  • The given sentence is in the Present Tense, so the question tag should also be in the present tense.
  • The error in the sentence is the use of "didn't" because the main clause is positive ("Nishtha writes very well"), and for positive main clauses, we typically use the negative form in the tag question.

  • The correct tag question should be: Nishtha writes very well, doesn't she?
