Структура вопросов в Past Simple.

Сначала, по традиции, рассмотрим образование так называемых "общих" вопросов в Past Simple.

Did+подлежащее+инфинитив глагола

Did Ira work in a bank from 1990 to 1995? - Работала ли Ира в банке с 1990 по 1995г?

Did Victor go shopping yesterday? - Ходил ли Виктор вчера по магазинам?

Did we enjoy the party last week? - Понравилась ли нам вечеринка на прошлой неделе?

Did mother do a lot of work last year? - Сделала ли мама много (работы) в прошлом году?

Для постановки вопросов мы также достаточно часто используем вопросительные слова: Who? (кто?) What? (что?) Where? (где?) When? (когда?) How many? (сколько?) и др. В этом случае порядок слов в предложении будет таков:

Вопросительное слово+did+существительное+глагол в инфинитиве

Where did Ira work from 1990 to 1995?

When did Victor go shopping?

How much work did mother do last year?

Обратите, пожалуйста, внимание на то, что и правильные, и неправильные глаголы образуют вопросы и отрицательную форму по одинаковой схеме!
