C. Ever lived alone before

A. Several
other states hasn’t either
B. Neither
has some of the others states
C. Some
other states also have not either
D. Neither have several other states
Answer
: D
Analysis
: Here the word “neither” is used in the form of a ‘similar comparison’. Both are
negative clauses. But because we are negating something it is more natural to
use the word neither so that we will know early on that it is a negation. So the
correct option as per the rule of grammar is (D)

grammar. If it’s a negative sentence the
followed question tag must be positive including the auxiliary verb given in
the sentence (has) that’s why option D is pefect answer for this question as
its in positive question tag and all other options have negative question tags.

Analysis
: the given sentence is a conditional sentence starting with “if” and as per
the rule of conditional sentences in english grammar, if the first principal
clause is in past perfect continous tense in which we add “been” after the verb
(had+been), then the proceeding subordinate clause will be in simple past
tense. That’s why the correct option is (D)

: since the sentence clearly indicates the usage of simple past tense (crossed)
in the second part so as per the tense rule of english grammar the beginning
sentence must be in past perfect tense in which we add ‘had + 2nd form of verb
(looked)’. Therefore the option (B) correctly matches the answer for given
question.

option (B) is the correct answer for this question.
