Correct Answer: haven’t


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .

Explanation : A question tag is a short question used at the end of a statement. If a statement is positive, the question tag will be negative, and if the statement is negative, the question tag will be positive. Here, the statement is positive, so the question tag will be negative: "haven't you?" This construction maintains the polarity of the question tag in the whole sentence.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "You have memorised your speech, haven't you?"
