Ini topiknya Question tag
Cukup lihat kalimat utamanya positif atau negatif.
Negatif tidak selalu not, bisa juga dengan kata-kata negatif, seperti:
Hardly
Scarcely
Barely
No sooner
Never
Rarely
Little
In/ under no circumstances
On no condition
In no way
Not only
Atau negatif lainnya
Di soal ada kata nothing yang bermakna negative, maka Question Tag nya harus berlawanan dengan kalimat utama, maka A dan C salah, tinggal B dan D.
Cukup lihat predikat nya, kalau V2 aux => Did (V1 aux => Do/ Does)
Kalau Aux tetap aux (is, am, are, was ,were, have, has, had)
maka jawabannya A (went = did)
