Correct Answer: (4)


Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.

Explanation : The sentence is a question and follows a question tag. A question tag is a very short clause at the end of a statement that changes the statement into a question. If the sentence is positive, the question tag takes the negative form of the auxiliary verb. If the sentence is negative, the question tag employs the positive form followed by the pronoun. So, "do they" should be replaced with "don't they" to correct the sentence.

Therefore, the correct choice is the third option.
