When asking questions in English, the word order is important. For questions using "are," "am," and "is," we swap the first two words. For questions using "can," we also swap the first two words. For other present simple verbs, we use "do" or "does" at the beginning of the sentence. There are two activities to practice asking questions. Good luck! And English, when we want to ask questions, we need to think about the order of the words. Here are three sentences. How would you make these into questions? You like playing chess? You are good at running? You can ride a bike? Have a look at the answers. Did you get the same? Do you like playing chess? Are you good at running? Can you ride a bike? When we are using words like are, am, and is, these are all from the verb to be. To make a question, with the verb to be, we swap the order of the first two words. You are becomes are you. It's the same when we use can. We just swap the order of the first two words to make a question. You can ride a bike becomes, can you ride a bike? It's a bit different with all the other present simple verbs. We need the helping verbs do or does to make a question. We keep the same order of words, but we add do or does to the beginning. So, you like playing chess becomes, do you like playing chess? And she likes swimming becomes, does she like swimming? Now we've got a few questions for you to check that you can ask questions in English. Good luck. Activity 1. Put these questions in the correct order. Drag and drop task. Do you enjoy basketball?
