This week we answer a question from Yang in China. Yang writes,
本周我们回答来自中国的杨的问题。杨写道，
I'm confused with the be verb and the do verb.
我对动词be和do有点困惑。
Which one should I use, especially when making a question? – Yang, China
我该使用哪个单词，尤其是在提问题的时候？
Dear Yang,
亲爱的杨，
Do you want to learn how to ask questions with ?
你想学习如何用do提问吗？
Are you learning about the be verb, too?
也在学习be动词吗？
I just used those verbs to ask you questions!
那我就用这两个动词问你几个问题！
Be and do are called auxiliary or "helping" verbs.
Be和do被称为助动词。
That means they help make questions or negative statements with main verbs.
这意味着他们可以帮助主动词进行提问或否定。
To answer your question, let us start with the auxiliary verb do.
为了回答你的问题，让我们从助动词do开始。
Use do when you make a question in the simple present tense.
当你以一般现在式提问时，就用do。
In the following questions, the main verb does not change.
在以下问题中，主动词不变。
What do you want to eat? ("want" is the main verb)
你想吃什么？（“want”是主动词）
Does she like her job?
她喜欢她的工作吗？
You also can use do to ask a question in the simple past tense.
你还可以使用do的一般过去式提问。
Use the past tense, "did" with the main verb, as in these questions.
与这些问题一样，使用过去式“did”和主动词。
Did you eat pizza yesterday? ("eat" is the main verb)
你昨天吃披萨了吗？（“eat”是主动词）
Which car did you buy?
你买了什么车？
Use the helping verb do when using "not" in a question or statement in the simple present or past.
在一般现在式或过去式的问题或陈述中使用“not”时，请使用主动词do。
Here are two examples:
以下是两个例子：
Why don't you ask her?
你为什么不问她？
Didn't he go to the party?
他没去派对吗？
Use be when you want to make a question in the present continuous or past continuous tense.
当你想以现在进行时或过去进行时提问时，使用be。
The continuous form of English verbs adds the letters ‘i-n-g' to the end of the main verb and be matches the subject.
英语动词的进行时是在主动词的末尾添加字母“ i-n-g”，be与主语一致。
These questions can be negative, too.
这些可以用在反问句中的。
Are you thinking about the Christmas party?
你在考虑圣诞晚会吗？
Were they making dinner when you arrived?
你到的时候，他们在做晚餐吗？
Isn't she driving home now?
她现在不开车回家吗？
There is one more auxiliary verb in English, the word have.
英语中还有一个助动词，have。
We will talk about how to use have another time.
我们之后再讨论如何使用。
And that is Ask a Teacher.
以上就是本期《名师答疑》的全部内容。
