Do the same, but this time only getting one point if you get “Yes” answers to both an “Is/
are there…?” question and a “Do you like…?” question on the same topic, e.g. “Are there
any balls in your garage?” “Yes, there are” “Do you like soccer?” “Yes, I do”. No points if
one of the answers is “
No”.
