DEAR STUDENTS, PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION BELOW AND DO THE EXERCISES IN A SEPARATED PAPER.                                 

                            

   PRESENT PROGESSIVE OR PRESENT CONTINUOUS

1. Present Continuous
   Cuando se quiere expresar una acción que sigue ejecutándose al momento en que se enuncia, se emplea el tiempo Presente Continuo (Present Continuous) or Presente Progesivo..
   La forma en que se conjuga este tiempo es bastante simple: se usa el verbo to be conjugado en presente seguido del gerundio del verbo en cuestión (se agrega -ing, por lo cual los estudiantes lo reconocen fácilmente).
   
   John is reading a book.
   She is having breakfast now.
   Para realizar preguntas en este tiempo verbal, se usa primero el verbo to be conjugado, luego la persona y finalmente el verbo.
   
   Is John reading a book?
   Yes, he is.
   
   Is she having breakfast now?
   No, she isn't.
   Para realizar una pregunta específica, se usa la "question word" y luego, se sigue el mismo método.
   
   What is John reading?
   He is reading a book.
   
   What is she having now?
   She is having breakfast now.
   Se puede realizar una pregunta mucho más general para saber que está haciendo una persona, usando el verbo to do (hacer).
   
   What are you doing?
   I'm reading a book.
   Pues entonces, piensa cómo dirías lo siguiente en inglés? Estoy usando mi computadora.
   Respuesta: I'm using my computer.
