Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation: The sentence "I am a student, ____________" is typically followed by a tag question that agrees with the subject and verb form used in the main clause.
- B. aren't I? is the correct tag question to complete the sentence. Even though "I am" is positive, the tag question for "I am" is "aren't I?" This is an exception to the usual rule of forming negative tag questions for positive statements.
Other options:
- A. I'm I?: This is not a proper tag question format.
- C. isn't I?: This is grammatically incorrect because "isn't" should be "aren't" for "I am."
- D. wouldn't I?: This suggests a different context and is not used for confirming identity.
Thus, "aren't I?" best completes the sentence.
