Correct option is B
The correct option to fill in the blank is (b)
aren’t I.
The sentence contains a
question tag, which is a short question added at the end of a statement to confirm or check information.
Explanation:
· In the sentence, the auxiliary verb
"am" is used in the main clause. Normally, the question tag should be
"amn't I", but since it’s grammatically incorrect and not used in standard English,
"aren’t I" is used instead.
· This is an exception to the rule, and
"aren’t I" is the correct tag for “I am”.
Example:
· I am your best friend, aren’t I?
Why other options are incorrect:
·
(a) am I – Incorrect, as it doesn’t match the question tag rule for affirmative main clause.
·
(c) isn’t it – Incorrect, because the subject is “I”, not “it”.
·
(d) is it – Incorrect, because the main clause is not negative.
