From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences. It was the headboy ...

Answer Details

The correct option to complete the sentence is "wasn't it." The sentence is a statement, and it ends with an ellipsis, which implies that there is an unfinished thought. The most appropriate way to complete the sentence is to use a tag question, which is a question added to the end of a statement to confirm or clarify something. In this sentence, the speaker is stating that the headboy took the book away. The appropriate tag question to use is "wasn't it?" which is used to seek confirmation or agreement from the listener. The other options, "didn't he," "wasn't he," and "isn't it" are not appropriate because they do not match the tense or the subject of the main sentence. "Didn't he" would be used if the main sentence was in the negative form, "wasn't he" would be used if the sentence was a question, and "isn't it" would be used if the sentence was a statement expressing an opinion.
