Negative and question forms are made using the helping verb "do"
否定句與疑問句使用助動詞do
and its past form "did"
以及它的過去式did
and the simple form of the main verb
以及主動詞的一般式
Did you watch television last night?
昨晚你看電視了嗎？
In this sentence, the helping verb is "did"
在本句中，助動詞是did
and the main verb is "watch"
主動詞是watch
However, a sentence is using the helping verb "be"
然而，還有一種句子使用be作為助動詞
The structure is different
其結(jié)構(gòu)有所不同
There are two past forms of the verb "be"
動詞be有兩種過去式
'I", "he", 'she" use "was"
I, he, she用的是was
and "you", "we" and "they" use "were"
you, we和they用的是were
Instead of using "do" or "did"
而不是使用do或did
we just add "not" after "was" or "were"
我們只需在was或were后面加上not即可

We can shorten "was not" to "wasn't"

and "were not" to "weren't"
并將were not縮寫成weren't

昨天沒下雨

When we ask questions, we change the word order
當(dāng)提問時，我們要改變詞序
so that the verb goes before the subject

Anna was in Sarah's house yesterday
would become
會寫成
Was Anna at Sarah's house yesterday?
Was Anna at Sarah's house yesterday?
see if you can identify the helping verb "did"
看看你能否在下面的對話中找出助動詞did
