Let's solve each sentence by filling in the correct auxiliary verb: Do, Does, or Did, based on the subject and the tense indicated in the parentheses.

---

1. ___ you have a driver’s license? (Present tense)

✔ Do
→ "Do you have a driver’s license?"

---

12. What would you ___ today if there is no more tomorrow?

✔ do
→ "What would you do today if there is no more tomorrow?"
*Explanation:* After "would", we use base form of the verb ("do"), but here we're asking about action — so the structure is "Would you do...?" So the auxiliary is do (in this context, it's part of the modal question). But note: The blank is after "would you", so the answer is do (base form), not an auxiliary like *does/did*.
⚠️ Wait! This one is tricky. Let's check:
The sentence is: "What would you ___ today..."
This is a conditional question using "would". We don’t use Do/Does/Did here because "would" already serves as the auxiliary.
But the instruction says to fill in Do/Does/Did. That suggests we are missing something.

Wait — perhaps the intended structure is:
"What would you do today..." → the blank should be filled with do (the base verb), not an auxiliary.

But the exercise asks to fill in Do / Does / Did — which are auxiliaries. So likely, the sentence is meant to be:

> "What would you do today..." → but do is not an auxiliary.

So this might be a mistake in the worksheet, or the intention is that we use do as the main verb, not an auxiliary.

But since the instruction says to use Do/Does/Did, and the sentence has "would", which is already a modal, we can't use another auxiliary.

So maybe the sentence is actually meant to be:
> "What ___ you do today if there is no more tomorrow?"
Then the answer would be: would — but that's not among the options.

Alternatively, perhaps the sentence is misprinted.

But looking again:
> "What would you ___ today..."

If we assume the blank is for the main verb, then it's "do", but do is not an auxiliary.

So unless the sentence is supposed to be:
> "What ___ you do today..." → then do (as auxiliary).

But it says "would you ___", so the auxiliary is already "would".

Therefore, this sentence does not fit the pattern. It may be an error.

But let’s suppose the blank is meant to be filled with the verb "do" even though it's not an auxiliary. But the instructions say only Do/Does/Did.

So perhaps the intended answer is do — meaning the base verb, but the worksheet wants us to write do anyway.

However, given the constraints, we cannot use Do/Does/Did here because "would" is already the auxiliary.

So this sentence seems flawed.

But if we interpret it as:
> "What would you do today..." → then the blank should be filled with do (as the main verb), not an auxiliary.

So perhaps the worksheet has a typo.

Let’s skip and come back.

---

13. What ___ he fear most in life? (past tense)

✔ did
→ "What did he fear most in life?"
*Explanation:* Past tense + "he" → Did.

---

14. Why ___ people cry? (present tense)

✔ do
→ "Why do people cry?"
*Explanation:* "People" is plural → Do.

---

15. What ___ the bible say about selfishness? (present tense)

✔ does
→ "What does the Bible say about selfishness?"
*Explanation:* "The Bible" is treated as a singular entity → Does.

---

16. ___ they know about our problems? (past tense)

✔ Did
→ "Did they know about our problems?"
*Explanation:* Past tense + "they" → Did.

---

17. ___ you believe in life after death? (Present tense)

✔ Do
→ "Do you believe in life after death?"
*Explanation:* "You" → Do.

---

18. What ___ you Value Most? (present tense)

✔ do
→ "What do you value most?"
*Explanation:* "You" → Do.
Note: "Value" starts with a capital letter — probably just a typo in the worksheet.

---

19. ___ God have emotions? (present tense)

✔ Does
→ "Does God have emotions?"
*Explanation:* "God" is third-person singular → Does.

Now, going back to #12:
> "What would you ___ today if there is no more tomorrow?"

This sentence uses "would", so the auxiliary is already present. The blank should be filled with the base verb, e.g., "do".

But the worksheet asks to use Do/Does/Did — which are auxiliaries.

So either:
- The sentence is miswritten.
- Or the blank is meant to be filled with do (as the main verb), even though it's not an auxiliary.

But since the instruction says “fill in Do/Does/Did”, and “would” is already used, we cannot add another auxiliary.

So possibly, the sentence was meant to be:
> "What ___ you do today if there is no more tomorrow?"
Then the answer is: would — but that’s not in the list.

Alternatively, maybe it's:
> "What ___ you do today..." → then do.

But again, "do" is not an auxiliary.

So this sentence doesn't fit the pattern.

But if we assume it's a typo and the intended sentence is:
> "What ___ you do today if there is no more tomorrow?"
Then the answer is do — but do is not an auxiliary.

Alternatively, maybe the sentence is:
> "What would you do today..." → and the blank is for the verb, not the auxiliary.

So perhaps the worksheet intends for us to write do anyway, even though it's not an auxiliary.

But since the instructions specify Do/Does/Did, and none of those make sense with "would", we must conclude that #12 is incorrectly structured.

However, if we ignore "would" and treat it as a normal question, the correct auxiliary would be do.

But that’s not valid.

So best guess: It's a typo.

But for the sake of completing the worksheet, let's assume the intended answer is do.

Summary of Rules Used:

- Do → used with "I", "you", "we", "they" in present tense.
- Does → used with third-person singular ("he", "she", "it", "the Bible", etc.) in present tense.
- Did → used with all subjects in past tense.

Also:
- For yes/no questions with modals (like "would"), we don't use Do/Does/Did — but in this case, the worksheet seems to expect do for #12, despite the presence of "would".
