a. use do/ does/ did for the present and past simple. (e.g. Do you like opinions?' 'Yes, I do.' (= I like opinions)
b. can use auxiliary verbs to deny what somebody says (= say it is not true) (e.g. You're sitting in my place.' 'No, I'm not.' (= I'm not sitting in your place)

I1. use have you?/ isn't she?/ do they? etc. to show interest in what somebody has said or to show surprise. (e.g. 'I've just seen Simon.' 'Oh, have you? How is he?'

I2. use auxiliary verbs with so and neither. (e.g. 'I'm feeling tired.' So am I.' (= I'm feeling tired too))
