Change the questions below to information questions. a) Are we having tomato/chicken/mushroom soup today? b) Was it raining/foggy/cold when we were in London?

Information questions are used to seek specific information about time, place, reason, manner, etc. They are formed by using **question words** (who, what, when, where, why, how) followed by the appropriate auxiliary verb and subject. Below are the given statements converted into information questions following the correct structure.

**a) Original Statement:** *Are we having tomato/chicken/mushroom soup today?*

**Information Questions:**

- **What kind of soup are we having today?** *(Asks about the type of soup.)*

- **What soup are we having today?** *(More general, but still valid.)*

- **When are we having soup?** *(If the focus is on timing, though the original implies 'today.')*

**Explanation:**

The original statement is a **yes/no question** (expecting 'yes' or 'no' as an answer). To convert it into an **information question**, we replace the subject ('we') with a **question word** that fits the context. Here, 'what' is the most appropriate because it asks for **specific information** about the type of soup. The auxiliary verb ('are') remains unchanged, but the word order shifts to **que

**b) Original Statement:** *Was it raining/foggy/cold when we were in London?*

**Information Questions:**

- **What was the weather like when we were in London?** *(General question about conditions.)*

- **Was it raining when we were in London?** *(Specific about rain.)*
