Explanation:

The sentence structure in statements and questions is different. In the case of statements, the main elements (subject, verb and direct object) must be organized in the following way:

Modal/Auxiliary verb + Subject + Verb:

Will you go to the party? Do you like it? Can you answer the phone?

WH word + Verb + Subject:

What is this? Where are you?

WH word + Modal/Auxiliary verb + Subject + Verb:

Where will she go? What are you doing? What did you do last night?
