Susan can bring some food,___?
-
A. won't she
-
B. will she

The other options, "won't she" and "will she," do not fit the context of the question and therefore are incorrect.Rate this question:

In this case, it is used to seek confirmation that the party does not start at eight o'clock.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. B. isn't thereExplanation
The given correct answer is "b. isn't there". This is because the sentence is in the negative form and is referring to the noises outside.
