Answers:

a) Our game is cancelled, isn't it?

b) We are eating something delicious, aren't we?

c) You are not my teacher, are you?

d) You like to go to park, don't you?

e) Something smells funny, doesn't it?

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add question tags to a statement to make it into a question, that is more common in speaking than writing, when we expect the listener to agree with our statement.

▪ If the statement is positive, we use a negative question tag.

▪ If the statement is negative, we use a positive question tag.

▪ If there is an auxiliary verb in the statement, we use it to form the question tag.

▪ If there is no an auxiliary verb already in the statement:

►If the verb in the statement is present simple or past simple and it is positive. Here we use don't, doesn't or didn't:

▪ d) You like to go to park, don't you?

▪ e) Something smells funny, doesn't it?

►If the verb in the statement is 'to be' in the present simple or past simple, then we use it to make the question tag:

▪ a) Our game is cancelled, isn't it?

▪ b) We are eating something delicious, aren't we?

▪ c) You are not my teacher, are you?

►If the verb in the statement is a modal verb, then we use it to make the question tag

►If the main verb or auxiliary verb in the statement is 'am':

▪The positive question tag is 'am I?'

▪The negative question tag is usually 'aren't I?'
