Simple Present tense, Wh-Questions

Grammar - English Language

Part 1: Matching Wh-Questions (Section 1)

  1. Review the Visual Guide: Look at the large table of WH- QUESTIONS to remind yourself what information each word asks for (Person? Place? Reason? Quantity?).

  2. Match Them Up! Read the definitions in Section 1 (e.g., "Asking information about a reason") and write the number of the correct question word (What, Who, How, When, Why, Where) in the corresponding box.

  3. Part 2: Choose the Correct Question Word (Section 2)

    You need to be a detective here. Look closely at the answer already provided to determine what kind of information is being given.

  4. Analyze the Answer:

    • If the answer is a place (I am from China or On the classroom 401), use the word for place.

    • If the answer gives a reason (Because I have free time), use the word for reason

  5. If the answer gives a quantity (I have 3 brothers), use the word for quantity.

  6. If the answer gives a date or day (They go on Monday), use the word for time.

  7. If the answer is a thing or food (I usually eat eggs), use the word for object/thing.

  8. Complete the Question: Write the correct Wh-Question word in the empty box for the question.

  9.  

    Remember! All these questions follow the Simple Present Interrogative structure (Wh-word + Auxiliary Do/Does + Subject + Base Verb?). Pay close attention to the auxiliary verb already used in the sentence!
