Lesson 2: English Structure
We took a revision from our previous lecture about:
Do / Does in the Simple Present
| Auxiliary | Used with | Verb form |
|---|---|---|
| Do / don’t | I, we, you, they | verb only |
| Does / doesn’t | he, she, it | verb + -s |
Examples
- I do my homework every day.
- You do not (don’t) eat meat.
- We do speak English in class.
- They do not (don’t) live here.
- He does his work on time.
- She does not (doesn’t) like coffee.
- It does rain a lot in winter.
Rule: Use does (not do) with he, she, it, and add -s to the main verb.
Yes / No Questions
- Do you like tea? → Yes, I do. / No, I don’t.
- Does she play football? → Yes, she does. / No, she doesn’t.
WH Questions
| Question word | Use | Example |
|---|---|---|
| What | things | What do you study? |
| Where | places | Where does he live? |
| When | time | When do they arrive? |
| Who | people | Who does she meet? |
| Why | reason | Why don’t you come? |
| How | manner | How do you go to school? |
We also solved questions from pages 16 to 25.
