Let’s go step by step to complete the worksheet.
We are working with
Present Simple grammar, specifically forming
Yes/No questions and giving
short answers.
---
Step 1: Understand the rules from the boxes
From the top-left box:
- For subjects like
I, you, we, they, we use
“work” (base verb).
- For
he, she, it, we add
“s” → “works”.
From the middle and right boxes:
- To make a
question, we use
Do or
Does at the beginning.
- Use
Do for I, you, we, they.
- Use
Does for he, she, it.
- The main verb stays in base form (no “s”) after Do/Does.
- Short answers:
- Yes →
Yes, [subject] do/does.
- No →
No, [subject] don’t/doesn’t.
Example from #1:
> Statement: Mr. Stevens works at a bank.
> Question: Does Mr. Stevens work at a bank?
> Answer Yes: he does.
> Answer No: he doesn’t.
Note: Even though the statement says “works”, the question uses “work” (because “does” already shows the third person).

Step 2: Solve each numbered item
---
#### Item 2: Mary gets up at six o’clock.
- Subject:
Mary → third person singular → use
Does
- Verb: “gets up” → in question, change to base form → “get up”
- So question:
Does Mary get up at six o’clock?
Short answers:
- Yes:
she does
- No:
she doesn’t
---
#### Item 3: It rains a lot in that country.
- Subject:
It → third person singular → use
Does
- Verb: “rains” → base form → “rain”
- Question:
Does it rain a lot in that country?
Short answers:
- Yes:
it does
- No:
it doesn’t
---
#### Item 4: Sam and Kelly live in Australia.
- Subject:
Sam and Kelly → plural → use
Do
- Verb: “live” → already base form → stays “live”
- Question:
Do Sam and Kelly live in Australia?
Short answers:
- Yes:
they do
- No:
they don’t
