Answer 2

Explanation:

Unlike assertive and imperative sentences interrogative sentences end with a question mark. Interrogative sentences normally use words such as DO, DOES, DON'T and DOESN'T. Other words such as WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHY, CAN, COULD and WOULD are also used.If the interrogative sentence is positive, change it in a negative sentence. The given example is positive. Thus, 'are not' should be used in the sentence to make it assertive. Thus, option B is the correct answer according to the rules.
