Hello,
Helping verb is Did. With the help of this, we prepare questions. Carefully observe this. In the positive answer verb (2) is there. In the negative answer, verb(1) is there. Why ? Because, when, in the question ‘did’ already present, (at the same sentence) while, another verb(2) should not come. (did also verb 2  – remember do-did-done)
Here we go.
