a)has she?
b)hasn't she?
c)didn't she?
d)did she?

Answer 1

Hint: The sentence given in the question is a positive sentence. Therefore, the blank must be filled with a negative question tag.

Complete step-by-step answer:

 In the given question, we have been given a blank and we need to fill it with the most suitable option from the four given options.
In order to find the correct answer, it is necessary that we understand the concept of question tags. A question tag is used to turn a statement into a question, using the modal auxiliary verb and the subject pronoun. If a statement is negative and the question tag is positive and vice-versa.
In the given question, the statement is positive with the auxiliary verb being ‘has’ and the subject is ‘Reena’, about whom the speaker is speaking to someone else. Hence, the question tag that needs to be formed should be ‘hasn’t + she’.
Let us take a look at the given options and look for a similar option.
The correct answer is option ‘B’, ‘hasn’t she’ as it follows the given rules of following a question tag accurately.
Options ‘A’ and ‘D’ are incorrect as they are positive question tags and are hence, incorrect for the sentence. Option ‘C’ is incorrect as it does not follow the given auxiliary verb.

Note: To answer such questions easily, understand the concept of question tags as well as the types of sentences well. Once this is clear, its usage will come naturally to you.
