I looked this question up and found that we are supposed to complete the sentenced with the correct question tag.

Answer:

13. I am not disturbing you, am I?

14. Tom does his work very well, doesn't he?

15. This isn't very pleasant, is it?

16. She likes quiet places, doesn't she?

17. Tom doesn't play the piano, does he?

18. They didn't hurt the child, did they?

19. There were two car accidents yesterday, weren't there?

20. Tourist used to come here, didn't they?

21. You haven't got a computer, have you?

22. You don't have to follow him, do you?

23. He has to fill a form, doesn't he?

24. He didn't have to choose one, did he?

25. He has your ticket, doesn't he?

26. Everything is all right, isn't it?

27. He has got to leave, hasn't he?

28. Smoking ruins our health, doesn't it?

29. Most people cannot go to Africa, can they?

30. Finding a job isn't easy, is it?

Step-by-step explanation:

Tag questions are placed at the end of a sentence with the purpose of confirming the information stated in the sentence. The basic rule is: if the sentence is negative, the tag question is positive. If the sentence is positive (affirmative), the tag question is negative. Example: You love me, don't you?

The tag question is formed by the auxiliary verb and a pronoun that refers to the subject of the sentence. For instance, if the sentence talks about James (a man), the pronoun is "he". If the sentence is about Janine (a woman), it is "she". Examples: James is happy, isn't he? / Janine is happy, isn't she?

The auxiliary for the simple present is "do" for the persons "I, you, we, they", and "does" for "he she it". The auxiliary for the past is "did" for all persons.

If the sentence has the verb "to be", then "to be" is the auxiliary.

In "have / has got", the auxiliary is "have / has".

In "there + to be", the auxiliary is "to be", and the subject is "there".

With modal verbs such as "can, could, may, should", the modal verbs are the auxiliary.

Examples:

- You cook well, don't you?

- Ellen didn't go to school, did she?

- She is a chef, isn't she?

- I have got to talk less, haven't I?

- There is a woman waiting outside, isn't there?

- You can play the guitar, can't you?
