1) haven't they?
остальное правильно.
Если в роли сказуемого have, be, модальные глаголы, то do/did не нужны.

А во всех этих примерам будет не одно и тоже: won't it?
Или надо также время согласовывать, блин, не знаю...

Jim had not washed his neck, that is why Kate had not come to him on Sunday.

в "1) haven't they?" - имхо "don't they" тоже допустимо IRL.
но раз это школьный пример, то надо просто смотреть как ВАМ это преподают.

ЗЫ. в 20:38 проблема не в "won't" - там он везде, да.
но не везде будет "it" ;)

2. My brother's team will be playing several games ... = it
3. My brother's class will be staying home ... = they

А ведь Джим так и не вымыл свою шею, и Кейт ни за что не будет делать этого ни в воскресенье, ни в понедельник...

1) They have English on Monday....?
They have English on Monday, don't they?

That is correct. Compare:

They have got English on Monday, haven't they?

насчет have - в данном примере оба варианта будут правильны.

"Where "have" means possess it is possible to use both don't, doesn't and haven't, hasn't as the tag auxiliary, but only in the present tense.
Where "have" is used as an auxiliary verb, have tag questions are the only possibility."

Честно говоря, я немного удивлён, что have можно употребить в ярлычке при отсутствии got в главном предложении.

"In "You have a car" the "have" is not an auxilliary verb but a verb with the same force as any other (such as "drive" in "you drive a car, don't you?") and so the "do" tag form sounds correct to me. I think there is a vestige of an older usage in the way you can say "you have a car, haven't you?" (a time when you could even say "drive you not? etc"?) but it sounds very quaint to my ears." (by an Englishman)
