Fill in the blank using the appropriate form of the given words:
 Are you hungry? _________ something to eat?
A) Did you want
B) Do you want
C) Are you wanting
D) Have you wanted

Hint: There are two sentences in the given question, both of which are related to each other. Both the sentences are interrogatory in nature. The options given in the question are all interrogatory phrases that are used for framing questions, but their tenses and verb forms are different.

Complete answer:
The first sentence begins with ‘are’ and is in the present tense. Therefore, we must fill the blank in such a way that the second sentence is also in the present tense.

Now let us look into the given options:
Option A) Did you want – This phrase is used to begin a question when someone wanted something in the past. It is indicated by the word ‘did’. But the first statement given in the question is in the present tense, as it starts with the word ‘are’. We need to remain consistent with the tense. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Option B) Do you want – This option begins with the word ‘Do’ which indicates the present tense. If we use the phrase, ‘do you want’ to begin the sentence, it will be consistent intense with the previous sentence. Therefore, this option is absolutely correct.
Option C) Are you wanting – The word ‘wanting’ is used when the sentence has to be constructed in the continuous or the perfect continuous tense. For e.g. You are always wanting to eat junk food! I have been wanting to come here for so long. It is not suitable for filling the blank given in the question. Thus, this option is incorrect.
Option D) Have you wanted – This option uses the auxiliary verb ‘have’ and the participle form of the main verb ‘wanted’. This indicates that the sentence is constructed in the past perfect tense. Doing so would break the consistency of the tense of this sentence with the previous sentence. Thus, this option is also wrong.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B) Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?

Note: The question “Do you want something to eat?” is used when we are talking to a second person in the present tense. If we were to frame the same sentence for a singular third person, we would say “Does he/she want something to eat?” Moreover, if we were to frame the same question for a plural third person, we would say, “Do they want something to eat?
