1. Winters are cold in Russia, aren't they?
2. There are three winter months, aren't there?
To form a question tag, we take the auxiliary verb from the main clause and negate it in the question tag. In these questions, the auxiliary verb is "are" in the first sentence and "are" (contracted to "aren't") in the second sentence. We keep the subject pronoun "they" for both sentences as it matches with the subject in the main clause.

3. March is a spring month, isn't it?
For this sentence, the auxiliary verb is "is" in the main clause, and we negate it to "isn't" in the question tag. The subject pronoun "it" is used to match with the subject in the main clause.

4. But it isn't warm in March yet, is it?
Similar to the previous sentence, we use the auxiliary verb "isn't" in the question tag to negate the verb "is" in the main clause. The subject pronoun "it" is also used to match with the subject in the main clause.

5. Summer comes in June, doesn't it?
In this sentence, the auxiliary verb "comes" is used in the main clause. We negate it to "doesn't" in the question tag. There is no need for a subject pronoun in this sentence.

6. July is usually hot, isn't it?
The auxiliary verb "is" in the main clause is negated to "isn't" in the question tag. There is no need for a subject pronoun in this sentence.

7. August is not hot in many places, is it?
The main clause contains the verb "is not," which is negated to "is" in the question tag. The subject pronoun "it" is used to match with the subject in the main clause.

8. You like summer, don't you?
In this sentence, the subject pronoun "you" is used in both the main clause and the question tag. The main clause contains the verb "like," which is negated to "don't" in the question tag.

9. Your parents don't like winter, do they?
The main clause contains the verb "don't like," which is negated to "do" in the question tag. The subject pronoun "they" is used to match with the subject in the main clause.

10. Your teacher likes autumn, doesn't she?
In this sentence, the subject pronoun "your teacher" is used in the main clause. The main clause contains the verb "likes," which is negated to "doesn't" in the question tag. The subject pronoun "she" is used to match with the subject in the main clause.
