A) Would he like to go on the moon?
B) Won’t he like to go on the moon?
C) Wouldn’t he like to go on the moon?
D) Will he like to go on the moon?

Answer 1

Hint: Interrogative sentence is a type of sentence that asks a question. An interrogative sentence asks a direct question and it is punctuated at the end of the sentence (?). For example: Whose shirt is this?

Complete answer:
Option A) Would he like to go on the moon? – is an incorrect answer because the answer ‘He would like to go on the moon’ is in a positive tone and we want the question in negative and here in this option question is asked in positive. So, this option is incorrect.
Option B) Won’t he like to go on the moon? – is an incorrect answer because ‘won’t’ means ‘will not’. This option is inappropriate and thus does not match with the answer given in the question. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
Option C) Wouldn’t he like to go on the moon? – is the correct answer because this option asks a negative question. Also, interrogative means asking a direct question, here, it is asking a direct and the question is in the negative tone. So, this is the correct option.
Option D) Will he like to go on the moon? – is an incorrect answer because this question is in the positive tone and again, we need the question in the negative form. Thus, this is an incorrect answer. Wouldn’t he like to go on the moon?

Hence the correct answer is option ‘C’.

Note: When asking for confirmation, the question is asked in a sense opposite to that of the answer. Here the answer is in the positive, therefore the question must be in negative. Therefore, Option C is the most appropriate answer. Other options, Option B uses won't which means "will not", Option A and Option D are in the same sense as in the answer, and hence these options are incorrect.
