Best Answer Explained in Below-:

The question requires us to find a suitable word to complete the sentence, "Everyone should respect the teachers, shouldn't ..................?" The phrase "shouldn't" indicates that we should be looking for a word that refers back to "everyone" in a way that maintains agreement in number and perspective.

Option B, "they," is the best choice because "everyone" is a collective noun that can be treated as singular when considering the subject's behavior or attitude. However, when forming a question tag, we often default to plural forms for collective subjects when they refer to the members of the group. Thus, "shouldn't they?" effectively refers to the group of people who are implied to be exhibiting respect for the teachers.

The other options—A) "me," C) "you," and D) "he"—do not work within the context of the sentence. "Me" refers to a single person, "you" addresses another individual directly, and "he" indicates a single male. None of these options align with the plural idea suggested by the collective "everyone." Thus, B) "they" is the only option that accurately maintains the grammatical structure and meaning of the original sentence.
