👉A CLOSER LOOK 2

   Grammar
   Yes/No questions

   • These questions need either a Yes or No answer.
   • We form a Yes/No question with an auxiliary verb (be, do or have) or with a modal verb. We put the auxiliary verb or modal verb before the subject.
     Example:
   - Are you eating moon cakes? Yes, I am.
   - Did they eat moon cakes at the festival last year? No, they didn't.
   - Can he eat all these moon cakes? Yes, he can.
   • We don't use an auxiliary verb when we use be as a main verb.
     Example:
     Is that your Christmas present? Yes, it is.
