First up, let's review question structure in English.
首先，我们来复习一下英语问题的结构。
Now, the good news is that English questions are fairly consistent and easy to follow because they have a clear structure.
好消息是英语问题都非常一致，而且易于模仿，因为它们有着清晰的结构。
There are four main parts that you need to keep in mind.
有四点你需要牢记在心。
The first part: question words, who, what, where, when, how, why
第一部分是：疑问词，包括谁，什么，在哪里，何时，如何，为什么
or question phrases like how long ,or how often, or how much.
或者像多长时间，多长时间一次，多少这样的疑问短语。
Then number two is your auxiliary verb or your helping verb: be, do or have.
第二个是你的助动词，be，do和have。
It can also be a modal auxiliary verb like can or will or should.
也可以是像can，will或者should这种情态动词。
Thirdly, you need your subject. I, you, we, etc.
第三呢，你需要主语，我，你，我们……
And your main verb, any verb! play, eat, buy.
然后就是你的主动词啦，任何动词都可以！玩，吃，买。
These are the four things that you need and you need them in that order, every time!
这是你所需要的四个元素，而你需要按顺序使用它们，每次都是这样哦！
Okay, let's try with some examples, ready?
