12 minutesGrammar Discovery: simple present questions: Do you...? + short answers
Look at these questions and answers from the dialogue. What word starts every question?
Do you like this book? → Yes, I do.
Do you live in New York? → No, I don't.
Do you have children? → No, we don't.
Explain:
How do we make questions with 'you'?
You like coffee. → Do you like coffee? — Add DO at the beginning. The verb doesn't change.
Do you like coffee? → Yes, I do. / No, I don't. — Short answer: do/don't. NEVER repeat the verb.
Quick Check (oral):
1. Say: "___ you live near here? (Do / Are)"
Expected: Do
If wrong: Questions about habits: DO you...? (not ARE you)
2. Say: "Do you like coffee? Yes, I ___. (do / like)"
Expected: do
If wrong: Short answer: Yes, I DO. Never 'Yes, I like.'
3. Say: "___ you have children? No, we ___. (Do/don't)"
Expected: Do, don't
If wrong: Do you...? → No, we don't.
Para fazer perguntas sobre habitos: Do + you/we/they + verbo base (sem 's'). Resposta curta: Yes, I do. / No, I don't. NUNCA repete o verbo na short answer: 'Yes, I do.' (NAO 'Yes, I like.').
