Hello.
I am confused a little bit by this phrase.
I seems to me this is a questoin tag form. Isn't it?
And this sentence should be:
" I like anything to do with sport. Don't you?"( if the first part is positive the second should be negative).
Or I am wrong and another grammar construction is used there.
Thank you for explanation in advance.

It's not a question tag question.

Hi Maria,

You'll notice that the test is headed 'responses' and that particular question is asking for a reaction/response to the comment: I like anything to do with sport. It's an example of the sort of things people say in conversation.

.
In addition, sometimes "Do you?" is also used this way as a response:

Mike: 'I like anything to do with sport.'
Jane: 'Do you?'
