Write questions in the tenses given in brackets. Decide whether or not to use an auxiliary.
  1. you/read/that book (Active Voice - Present Perfect Simple)
  2. he/live/in London (Active Voice - Simple Present)
  3. what/you/do (Active Voice - will-Future)

Answer key:
  1. Have you read that book?for Present Perfect we use the auxiliary have(i)
  2. Does he live in London?(i)
  3. What will you do?will is used as an auxiliary for will-future tenses(i)
  4. Did I hurt you?did is used as an auxiliary in negative sentences and questions in Simple Past (Active Voice)(i)
  5. Do they work in a factory?do is used as an auxiliary in negative sentences and questions in Simple Present (Active Voice) if the subject is not 3rd person singular(i)
  6. Has he helped you?for Present Perfect we use the auxiliary have
    3rd person singular = has
    (i)
  7. Are you busy?If the full verb is a form of the verb be, we do not use an auxiliary. Instead, use the full verb in the tense needed.(i)
  8. What music will be played?Passive Voice - will-Future: will + be + past participle(i)
  9. Were the sailors rescued?Passive Voice - Simple Past: was/were + past participle
    2nd person and plural = were
    (i)
