Чтобы переделать утвердительные предложения на вопросительные, нужно изменить порядок слов и, чаще всего, добавить вспомогательный глагол. В английском языке для образования вопросов в прошедшем времени обычно используется вспомогательный глагол "did". Вот как это делается для каждого предложения:
Kate visited her grandparents several times a week.
- Did Kate visit her grandparents several times a week?
They interrupted your talk several times.
- Did they interrupt your talk several times?
All the pupils got excellent marks for the dictation.
- Did all the pupils get excellent marks for the dictation?
We read a lot of interesting stories last year.
- Did we read a lot of interesting stories last year?
She often called on us last week.
- Did she often call on us last week?
He thought about her letter.
- Did he think about her letter?
Rita told them the news.
- Did Rita tell them the news?
Nick broke the window with his ball.
- Did Nick break the window with his ball?
Max drew that funny big house.
- Did Max draw that funny big house?
You had tea in the morning.
- Did you have tea in the morning?
It rained heavily last night.
- Did it rain heavily last night?
В каждом случае вспомогательный глагол "did" используется перед подлежащим, а основной глагол в предложении переводится в начальную форму (инфинитив без частицы "to"). Это общий принцип для построения вопросов в прошедшем времени в английском языке.
