RULES FOR QUESTION TAG ALONG WITH EXERCISE

What is a tag question?
A tag question is a statement followed by a small-question. We use tag questions to ask for confirmation.In a tag question a statement is made and a question is asked after that.
For an example-
a) You are busy, Arent’t you?

Four basic rules have to be kept in mind while making question tags-

2 If the sentence is an affirmative sentence, the question tag will be negative.
If the sentence is a negative sentence the question tag will be positive.

Hello good morning hope you are all doing great..

I Have a Dream" is a public speech delivered by American civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963, in which he calls for an end to racism in the United States and called for civil and economic rights. Delivered to over 250,000 civil rights supporters from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., the speech was a defining moment of the civil rights movement.
Beginning with a reference to the Emancipation Proclamation, which freed millions of slaves in 1863, King observes that: "one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free". Toward the end of the speech, King departed from his prepared text for a partly improvised peroration on the theme "I have a dream", prompted by Mahalia Jackson's cry: "Tell them about the dream, Martin!" In this part of the speech, which most excited the listeners and has now become its most famous, King described his dreams of freedom and equality arising from a land of slavery and hatred. Jon Meacham writes that, "With a single phrase, Martin Luther King Jr. joined Jefferson and Lincoln in the ranks of men who've shaped modern America". The speech was ranked the top American speech of the 20th century in a 1999 poll of scholars of public address.
