8. ________ you do yoga every Wednesday?

Explanation

The given correct answer "Do" is the correct form of the verb "to do" in the present simple tense. In the question, "Do you do yoga every Wednesday?", the verb "do" is used to form the question and is also repeated in the response. This is a common structure in English where the main verb is repeated in short answers. In this case, "Do" is the correct answer because it matches the verb used in the question.

10. _________they live in Japan?

Explanation

The question is asking about the subject's location, specifically if they live in Japan. In this case, "Do" is the correct answer because it is the auxiliary verb used to form questions in the present simple tense. The subject of the question is missing, but it is implied that the question is referring to a third-person plural subject (e.g. "they"). Therefore, the correct question formation would be "Do they live in Japan?"
