Как понять принцип
Слова-подсказки now и at the moment показывают, что действие происходит прямо сейчас. Для этого нужен Present Continuous:
\[ \text{подлежащее} + am/is/are + \text{глагол с } -ing \]
Выбор формы \(be\):
- \(I\) → am;
- \(he, she, it\), а также имена в единственном числе → is;
- \(we, you, they\), а также несколько человек → are.
Отрицание строится так:
\[ \text{подлежащее} + am/is/are + not + \text{глагол с } -ing \]
Например:
She is making a cake. — Она готовит торт.
Kate is not dancing now. — Кейт сейчас не танцует.
Правописание
- help → helping;
- play → playing;
- listen → listening;
- work → working;
- ride → riding — убираем конечную \(e\);
- swim → swimming — удваиваем \(m\);
- make → making — убираем конечную \(e\);
- dance → dancing — убираем конечную \(e\).
Проверка: во всех предложениях есть форма \(be\), подходящая к подлежащему, и смысловой глагол с окончанием \(-ing\). Отрицания стоят после \(be\).
