Review direct yes/no and wh- questions, subject questions, negative questions, question tags and choice questions with correct auxiliary behavior.
Overview
Review direct yes/no and wh- questions, subject questions, negative questions, question tags and choice questions with correct auxiliary behavior.
Form and rules
Direct questions invert an existing auxiliary/modal or use do/does/did with simple main verbs.
Subject questions do not use do-support when who/what is the subject: Who called?
Negative questions can express surprise, expectation or suggestion: Didn't you get my email?
Question tags match the statement's auxiliary and usually reverse polarity.
Choice questions present alternatives with or and normally use ordinary question word order.

Examples
Have you finished yet?
Who sent the message?
Didn't you meet her yesterday?
You're coming, aren't you?
Would you prefer tea or coffee?
Common mistakes
Who is the subject, so do-support is not needed.
A negative past-simple question uses didn't + subject + base verb.

The test combines multiple choice, gap completion, error correction, and sentence building so students have to recognise and produce the grammar, not simply reread the rule.
