Answer:

A) Questions usually start with a helping verb or adverb.

Explanation:

The sentence structure in statements and questions is different. In the case of statements, the main elements (subject, verb and direct object) must be organized in the following way:

  • Subject + Verb + Direct Object: John drives a motorcycle.

Statements can also include indirect objects, adverbs, modal and auxiliary verbs, among other elements.

On the other hand, questions are organized in two ways, depending on the type of question:

  • YES/NO questions:

Verb + Subject + Complement:

Is she your sister?

Modal/Auxiliary verb + Subject + Verb:

Will you go to the party? Do you like it? Can you answer the phone?

  • WH- questions:

WH word + Verb + Subject:

What is this? Where are you?

WH word + Modal/Auxiliary verb + Subject + Verb:

Where will she go? What are you doing? What did you do last night?
