A When did Apollo 11 land on the Moon?
B When Apollo 11 did land on the Moon?
C Did Apollo 11 land on the Moon when?
D When did land Apollo 11 on the Moon?
Answer a
Remark In the test sentence we are given a wh-question, because it contains the question word ‘when’.The word order in ‘wh-questions’ is similar to ‘Yes/No questions’, but in ‘wh-questions’ question words ‘when’, ‘what’, ‘who’, ‘whose’, ‘where’, ‘how’, ‘which’, ‘why’ are put at the beginning of the sentences: wh-+ an auxiliary verb (be, do/does or have) + subject + main verb OR wh- + a modal verb+ subject + main verb: What have you been doing without us all this time?Therefore, we are to choose ANSWER 1: When (the question word) did (the auxiliary verb) Apollo 11(the subject) land (the main verb) on the Moon (the adverbial modifier of place)?
