For these questions, choose the option that best complete the gap(s):

He said, "We shouldn't do it________."

should we

should be

didn't we

said he

Answer Details

The option that best completes the gap is "should we." When someone says "We shouldn't do it," they are expressing an opinion or a suggestion. If we want to turn this into a question, we can add the phrase "should we" at the end to ask for confirmation or agreement with the opinion or suggestion. So the complete sentence would be "He said, 'We shouldn't do it, should we?'"
