TUGAS 3 BAHASA INGGRIS BISNIS 2 (KIND OF QUESTIONS)

A.    W+H QUESTIONS
            While yes-no questions are usually answered with a YES or NO (or some variation of these words, e.g. YEAH or NAH), a wh-question can expect any kind of information as a response. Wh-questions begin with WH-WORDS, which signify that the speaker is asking a question.
Here is a list of wh-words (this includes HOW, which doesn’t begin with a WH). Also note that different wh-words fall under different parts of speech, which will affect the way they are used in sentences.
Who (asks about a person)—noun
Whose (asks about possession)—adj
Whom (variation of “who” depending on its case)—noun
What (asks about a thing, sometimes a quality)—noun/adj
When (asks about a time)—adv
Where (asks about a place)—adv
Why (asks about a reason)—adv
How (asks about a method or quality)—adv
How much/many (asks about an amount)—adj/adv/noun
How + adj/adv (asks about an extent to which something is true)—adv
Which (asks about a small set of choices)—adj/noun
The following will explain different ways to construct different wh-questions, as categorized by parts of speech. Notice that many contain an inverted auxiliary verb and subject, just like in yes-no questions.
a) NOUN AS THE SUBJECT
Wh-words: who, what, how much/many, which
Formula: (Notice that the wh-word simply replaces the subject of the sentence)
Examples:
1.      Who’s going to take care of the dog while we’re gone?
(The neighbor is going to take care of the dog while we’re gone.)
Who cooks the most in your family?
 (My mom cooks the most in my family.)
Who ate the rest of my pizza?
(Rohit ate the rest of your pizza.)

2.      What’s going on?
Nothing’s going on.
What’s on TV right now?
 ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ is on TV right now.
b) NOUN AS THE DIRECT OBJECT
Wh-words: who(m), what, how much/many, which
Formula:
Wh-word + auxiliary verb + subject + rest of the sentence
Examples:
1.      Who did they end up choosing for the lead role?
 They ended up choosing Erin for the lead role.
2.      Whom specifically will this new policy affect?
This new policy will affect the working class, specifically.
3.      Who are you calling an idiot?
I’m calling you an idiot.
4.      What are you cooking for dinner?
I’m cooking pasta for dinner.
5.      Which do you like better? Jeans or sweats?
 I like jeans better.
Note: To be grammatically correct, the pronoun WHO should take the form WHOM if it is the direct or indirect object of the sentence. This, however, is usually reserved for formal writing, and the word WHOM in everyday speech is falling out of usage.
c) NOUN AS A COMPLEMENT
Wh-words: who, what, how much/many, which
Formula: (The term COPULA simply refers to the linking verb TO BE)
Examples:
1.      Who are all these people in the streets?
 (All these people in the streets are protestors.)
Sorry, who are you?
 (I’m Regan.)
2.      Who are you going to be in the play?
(I’m going to be a supporting character in the play.)
3.      What is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is a process by which plants make their own food.
4.      Which is the best option out of the two?
The best option out of the two is the first one.

D) NOUN WITH A PREPOSITION
Wh-words: who, what, how/much/many, which
Formulas: (If you are beginning the sentence with the word WHO, it’s normal to keep it as it is. However, if you choose to precede it with a preposition, it’s best to change WHO to its object form WHOM.)
Examples:
1.      Who were you on the phone with?
(I was on the phone with Jennifer.)
2.      With whom was Mr. Ramos seen with earlier this morning?
(Mr. Ramos was seen with his wife earlier this morning.)
3.      Who are you sending that package to?
(I’m sending this package to my cousin.)
4.      What is this world coming to?
 (Rhetorical question)

E) NOUN AS THE SUBJECT OF A SUBORDINATE CLAUSE
Wh-words: who, what, how much/many, which
Formula: Wh-word + auxiliary verb + subject + rest of the independent clause + rest of the subordinate clause
Examples:
1.      Who do you think should be president?
I think Elizabeth Warren should be president.
2.      Who did you say tends to gossip a lot?
I said that Amity tends to gossip a lot.
3.      Who does Pierre want to win the World Cup?
 Pierre wants Barcelona to win the World Cup.
4.      What do you think will happen if I skip class again today?
I think the professor will notice.
5.      Which do you think tastes better? Soymilk or almond milk?
I think almond milk tastes better.


F) ADVERB
Wh-words: when, where, why, how, how much, how + adv
Other possibilities: how many times, which way, what time, etc.
Formula: Wh-word + auxiliary verb + subject + rest of the sentence
Examples:
1.      When are you flying back to the States?
I’m flying back to the States on the 5th.
2.      When are you walking over to the party?
I’m walking over to the party in an hour.

8.      Why did your mom come to visit you last weekend?

9.      How are you?

B. QUESTION YES/NO

A. DEFINITION
            Question Yes/No is the question who ask someone, and people who will be ask, will answer yes/no only.
·         Am I your friend?      
Yes. / Yes, you are. / Yes, you are my friend.
·         Is this a good restaurant?       
No. / No, it is not. / No, it is not a good restaurant.

B. PATTERN
The rules
1.      If the main verb of the sentence is "to be", simply invert the subject and the verb to be:
Examples:
·         They are American. — Are they American?
·         They are nice. — Are they nice?

2.      If the sentence includes a main verb and another or other helping (auxiliary) verb(s), invert the subject and the (first) helping (auxiliary) verb.
Examples:
They are visiting Paris. — Are they visiting Paris?
She has done the housework. — Has she done the housework
3.      If the sentence includes a verb which is not the verb "to be" and doesn't include a helping (auxiliary) verb, the transformation is more complex.
a. If the verb is in the present tense, add either do or does and put the main verb in its base       form:
·         do if the subject is the first person singular, second person singular, first person plural,         second person plural and third person plural (I, you, we, they)

Examples:
·         I like apples. — Do you like apples?
·         They go to a high school. — Do they go to a high school?
              does if the subject is the third person singular (he, she, it).
Examples:
·         Nancy reads a lot. — Does Nancy read a lot?
·         He hates basketball. — Does he hate basketball?

  b. If the verb is in the past tense, add did and put the main verb in its base form:
Examples:

·         They did the homework. — Did they do the homework?


C. EXPLANATION
            For my expalanation, yes/no question is a word of question, who will be ask person with the question, which they will answer with only two answer. The answer for the question is YES/NO only. The question who will be ask to people, must not essay question. Because essay question can’t have answer with YES/NO question
In English, there are two basic types of questions: Yes / No questions and Wh- questions. Yes / No questions are also called closed questions because there are only two possible responses: Yes or No.
1.      When forming a Yes / No question, it must include one of these verbs: BE, DO, HAVE, or a modal verb. It is impossible to ask a Yes / No question without one of these verbs.

C. QUESTION TAG

A. DEFINITION
Tag questions (or question tags) turn a statement into a question. They are often used for checking information that we think we know is true.
  
B. PATTERN
positive statement → question tag negative→ You are Tom, aren't you?
negative statement → question tag positive→ He isn't Joe, is he?
Qustion tag must following by grammar too. If present tense, the question tag must present tense too, and etc.

C. EXPLANATION
Tag questions are made using an auxiliary verb (for example: be or have) and a subject pronoun (for example: I, you, she). Negative question tags are usually contracted: It's warm today, isn't it (not 'is it not')
Usually if the main clause is positive, the question tag is negative, and if the main clause is negative, it's positive. For example: It's cold (positive), isn't it (negative)? And: It isn't cold (negative), is it (positive)?
If the main clause has an auxiliary verb in it, you use the same verb in the tag question. If there is no auxiliary verb (in the present simple and past simple) use do / does / did (just like when you make a normal question).
There is one wierd exception: the question tag after I am is aren't I.
Example: I'm in charge of the food, aren't I?
