E.g. : Do you like classical or pop music?

4. Tag-questions
They are formed with the auxiliary verb, used to form general questions in each grammar tense. If the sentence is positive, the tag-question is negative and if it is negative, the tag-question is positive.

We put the tag-question “will you” at the end of a request to make it more polite.
E.g. : Close the door, will you?
We put the tag-question “shall we” at the end of a question if it is a suggestion to do something together.
E.g. : Let’s go to the garden to have tea, shall we?
Questions to the subject of the sentence or its attribute.
Questions to the subject of the sentence or its attribute begin with who, what, which, whose. They don’t change the structure and word order of the sentence.
E.g. She was there with us.
Who was there with us? – She was.
E.g. Who has done this exercise? – We have.
E.g. Two of them liked our proposal.
Which of them liked our proposal? – Two of them did.
Remember: “Who” is always singular.
Questions to the subject and object of the sentence
If the subject and object of the sentence are personal nouns the question starts with “who”, but the word order is different.
Compare:
E.g. Mary saw Claire at the station.
Who saw Claire at the station? – Mary did.
Who did Mary see at the station? – Mary saw Claire.
