Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple present form of the verb helps us to use or understand when a verb is telling about events that happen repeatedly in the present. We add ‑s or ‑es to the end of the verb depending on the speaker and also on the verb.

For example , "My mother cooks the food"

The present progressive form of the verb tells us an action is happening now or an event is ongoing . The present form of the verb "to be" together with a present participle -ing indicates an event currently in progress.

For example, "We are pushing the car right now."
