Answer:
1- Deseo visitar un país que posea vestigios mayas.
2- Busco datos que ilustren la llegada de los españoles en Guatemala.
3- Requiero una persona que esté dispuesta a trabajar en nuestro restaurante.
4- Deseo adquirir una camisa que se semeje a la de Alberto.
5- No conozco a persona que sea más descortés que Gloria.
Explanation:
All the verbs are in what is known in Spanish as "presente del subjuntivo" (subjunctive mood). In English, these phrases would translate to:
1- I wish to visit a country that has Mayan ruins.
2- I seek information that explains the arrival of the Spanish in Guatemala.
3- I require a person who wants to work at our restaurant.
4- I want to buy a shirt resembling the one Alberto owns.
5- I do not know anyone who is ruder than Gloria.
In the Spanish language, changing the order of words is unnecessary. As this exercise requests a modification in that order, we will follow straightforward steps to achieve it. We will turn declarative sentences into questions in Spanish.
1) Start with a standard declarative statement: Regular sentences in Spanish have the subject first, followed by the verb.
2) Swap the subject and the verb's positions: In English, when you say this is... in declarative form you would ask is this...? in an interrogative form. The same rule applies in Spanish. For example, you change ésta es... to ¿es ésta...? This adjustment also works for other sentences that don't adhere to the this is... pattern, such as la niña es bonita to ¿es bonita la niña?
3) Don't stress about do: In English, questions typically contain the verb do, yet in Spanish, the term do is implicitly part of the verb.
Hence, the transformation looks as follows:
1. ¿Prepara la prueba la Profesora Cruz?
Is Professor Cruz preparing the exam?
2. ¿Necesitamos estudiar Sandra y yo?
Do Sandra and I have to study?
3. ¿Practican los chicos el vocabulario?
Are the boys practicing the vocabulary?
4. ¿Termina Jaime la tarea?
Is Jaime finishing the homework?
5. ¿Trabajas tú en la biblioteca?
Are you working in the library?
