Correct option is A

Concept: The given sentence indicates a truth about the speaker 'I'. So the sentence is in simple present tense.

  • Option A: 'Play' and 'don't play' both are in simple present tense. The first part of the sentence is declarative and the other is negative. So it is the correct answer.
  • Option B: 'Plays' and 'does not play' are used for third person narrative, so it is not the right option.
  • Option C: 'Was playing' and 'was not playing' are used for past continuous tense. They are used to show action or events in the past. So it is not the right answer.
  • Option D: 'Have played' and 'have not played' are used in present perfect tense. So it is not the right answer.
  • Hence options A is the correct answer.
