GENRES OF BOOKS

1. Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction? What genres? Have you ever read a book in English? How about a magazine or a newspaper? if not, what would you like to read? why?

I prefer fiction and the romantic genre.
I've never read a book, magazine or newspaper in English before but I hope one day I'll be able to read the little prince because it's hard to follow and I like challenges. (for me it is hard to follow because it is written in English).

TAG QUESTIONS The question tags are grammatical elements that are placed at the end of a sentence in the form of a short question and whose structure is opposed to the previous sentence. That is, if a sentence is affirmative, the accompanying question tag will be negative. The two main rules for forming question tags are that when a sentence is affirmative, the question is negative. Whereas when a sentence is negative, the question is positive. Structure:  Affirmative sentence + negative question tag. Example: - You have been there, haven’t you? - He isn’t coming, is he?
