Where --asking question There are two sentences in my textbook. 1. He's flying to the supermarket. 2. He wakes up in the library. But I want to ask questions of those two sentences. Is the first one to be Where is he flying to? (Do we need "to" here?? And why??) And is the second sentence to be Where does he wake up in? (Do we need "in" here??) If you can answer this question for me, that's really helpful, and thank you so much.

Hi Brisa, Yes, firstly, you do need "to" at the end of the first sentence "where is he flying to"? The structure BE GOING TO is normally used to indicate the future in English so "to" should be in there at all times. In your second sentence - you don't need the word "in". Consider:- "he wakes up on a boat" - in this case you would not say, "where does he wake up on?". That would be wrong The place is defined by the name, not whether he was in it on it or around it. The first sentence has a set structure with the "going to rule" but the second sentence is different. I hope that helps.

No, you don't need the preposition in either of those questions. The idea of 'to' and 'in' are included in the word 'Where'.
