Answer 1

natural order sentence
\(\normalsize\color{royalblue}{ \rm When~~the~~subject~~of~~a~~sentence~~comes~~before~ ~the~~verb. }\)

Answer 2

lets label the \(\normalsize\color{royalblue}{ \rm subjects }\) and the \(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm verbs }\).


\(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm Ask }\) the farmer if he has any corn.

\(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm Are }\) the \(\normalsize\color{royalblue}{ \rm tomatoes }\) ripe yet?

Do \(\normalsize\color{royalblue}{ \rm you }\) \(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm have }\) any fresh eggs for sale?

Behind the weathered barn \(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm was }\) an old \(\normalsize\color{royalblue}{ \rm car }\).

Answer 3

in the first sentence "\(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm you }\) ask the farmer" is what it is like, where "\(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm you }\)" would have been the subject, but just that this word is not there, so this sentence has \(\normalsize\color{blueviolet}{ \rm no~subject }\).
