1."Did"(a)
'See' is an action verb and 'last night' signals past simple, so we use 'Did'. 'Did you see the football match last night?' — the verb stays in base form after 'did'.
2."Has"(d)
'Been to' with 'before' signals present perfect (life experience). 'She' is third person singular, so we use 'Has'. 'Has she been to Japan before?'
3."Were"(c)
'At school' describes a location (state, not action), so we use 'be'. 'Yesterday' means past tense, and 'the children' is plural → 'Were'. 'Were the children at school yesterday?'
4."did"(a)
The question uses 'Did...?', so the short answer is 'Yes, I did' — not 'Yes, I enjoyed.' Short answers repeat the auxiliary only.
5."Did"(d)
'Rain' is a verb and 'yesterday afternoon' signals past simple, so we use 'Did'. 'Did it rain yesterday afternoon?'
