Questions

A. She is fine. ✓
This is the correct response to "How is she?" — it directly answers the question about someone's state or condition.

B. She is not. ✗
Incomplete and confusing — "not" what? Doesn't properly answer the question.

C. She is playing. ✗
This answers *what* she is doing, not *how* she is (her condition/feeling).

D. She is sleeping. ✗
Same issue — describes an activity, not her state of health or well-being.

Where is correct because it's the question word for *location or place*. You use "where" when asking about a physical address or area.

• Why asks for reasons/causes — not about location
• What asks about things or descriptions — not about location
• Who asks about people/identity — not about location

What is correct because you're asking about the specific time of the concert. "What time" is the standard way to ask when something happens.

• Why asks for a reason or cause ("Why is the concert?")
• How asks about manner or method ("How is the concert?" doesn't make sense here)
• Where asks about location ("Where is the concert?"), not when it occurs

A is correct: "Mine" is a possessive pronoun that correctly shows ownership. The sentence structure "This book is [possessive pronoun]" requires a pronoun that stands alone.

B is wrong: "Her" is an object pronoun, not a possessive pronoun. You'd say "her book" (with a noun), not "is her."

C is wrong: "It" is a subject/object pronoun for things, not a possessive pronoun. It doesn't show ownership.

D is wrong: "Them" is an object pronoun for multiple people. It doesn't show ownership and doesn't match the singular "book."

Correct answer: Are

"They" is a plural pronoun, so it requires the plural form of "to be," which is "are." The sentence reads: "Are they relatives?"

Why the others are wrong:
- Am - used only with "I" (singular)
- Is - used with singular pronouns like "he," "she," or "it"
- Why - this is a question word, not a verb form of "to be"

Why A (Is) is correct:
This is a yes/no question about one person ("she"), so you need the singular form of "to be." "Is" matches the singular subject "she."

Why the others are wrong:
- B (Are): Used with plural subjects (they, we, you) or when asking about multiple people, not a single person
- C (Yes): An answer to a question, not a question word itself
- D (It): A pronoun that doesn't fit the structure; we already have "she" as the subject

Why A (Have) is correct:
This sentence needs the present tense auxiliary verb "have" to form a present perfect question ("Have you got a car?"). "You" is a second-person pronoun that pairs with "have," not "has."

Why the others are wrong:
- B (Had) – This is past tense; the question asks about now, not the past
- C (Has) – This goes with third-person singular (he/she/it), not "you"
- D (Is) – This is a different auxiliary verb; it doesn't form the correct meaning with "got"

A. Has ✓

• "Has" is correct because the sentence needs a present tense helping verb with "she" (third person singular). "Has" pairs with he/she/it.
• B. Have – used with I/you/we/they, not "she"
• C. Had – past tense; the sentence seems to ask about present situation ("got a dog?")
• D. Am – means "to be"; doesn't work as a helping verb here

Why A is correct:
"Are" is the correct present tense form of "to be" when the subject is "you." The complete sentence is "Are you happy?" — a yes/no question.

Why the others are wrong:
- B. Is – Used only with third-person singular subjects (he, she, it), not "you"
- C. Am – Used only with the subject "I," not "you"
- D. Have – This is a different verb entirely; it doesn't fit the structure of this question about someone's state of being

Why A (Do) is correct:
"Do" is the correct auxiliary verb for forming questions with "you." The pattern is: Do + you + verb. "Do you speak English?" is the proper question form.

Why the others are wrong:
- B (Is): Used only with "he/she/it" (Is he speaking English?)
- C (Am): Used only with "I" (Am I speaking English?)
- D (Are): Used with "you" BUT only in the present continuous tense with "-ing" verbs (Are you speaking English right now?), not for simple present questions like this one

Why A is correct:
"Did" is the past tense auxiliary verb needed to form a question about a completed action. The sentence structure for past questions is: Did + subject + verb.

Why the others are wrong:
- B (Do): Present tense, but the question asks about "it" as a past event ("do it" suggests already done)
- C (They): A pronoun, not a verb—doesn't work grammatically for forming questions
- D (Don't): Negative form ("do not"), and still present tense—doesn't match the question structure needed

Was is correct because:
- "Last night" is past tense, so you need the past tense form of "to be"
- "He" is singular, and "was" is the correct past tense form for he/she/it

Why the others are wrong:
- Am – present tense only (used with "I")
- Do – wrong verb entirely; doesn't fit the question structure
- They – a pronoun, not a verb; can't fill a verb position

Did is correct because this is a past tense question. "Did you work?" asks about a completed action in the past.

• It - This is a pronoun, not a verb, so it can't form a question here.
• Has - This creates present perfect tense ("Has you worked?"), which is grammatically incorrect and changes the meaning.
• Is - This is present tense ("Is you work?"), which is grammatically wrong and doesn't match the intended past tense meaning.

Correct answer: A. isn't

This is a tag question—a short question at the end of a sentence to confirm information. Since the main sentence is positive ("She is Spanish"), the tag question must be negative. "Isn't" is the negative form of "is," matching the verb in the main clause.

Why the others are wrong:
- B. was – Wrong tense; the main clause uses "is" (present), not "was" (past)
- C. do – Wrong verb; "do" doesn't match "is"
- D. don't – Wrong verb form; "do" doesn't pair with "she is," and it's not negative in the right way

Correct answer: aren't

• This is a question tag (a short question added to the end of a statement).
• The main clause "They are coming" is positive, so the tag must be negative: "aren't."
• Question tags use the same auxiliary verb as the main clause ("are"), so "aren't they?" is correct.

Why the others are wrong:

• is – Wrong verb form; "is" is singular, but "they" is plural.
• do – Wrong auxiliary verb; the main clause uses "are," not "do."
• am – Wrong verb form; "am" goes with "I," not "they."
