Hi Bengü, let's work through this grammar exercise together. We need to fill in the blanks using the correct form of the verbs given: promise, sunbathe, go, take, buy, and do.
Word Bank
* promise
* sunbathe
* go
* take
* buy
* do
For the first sentence, I promise I will call you when I get back. We use the simple present here because promising is a speech act happening now.
1. I promise I will call you when I get back.
In the second sentence, the phrase at the moment tells us the action is happening right now. So, we use the present continuous. My brother is taking lots of pictures.
2. My brother is taking lots of pictures at the moment.
The third sentence describes a future plan for after lunch. We use the present continuous for fixed arrangements. My parents are going on a tour.
3. My parents are going on a tour of the city after lunch.
Now let's look at the remaining sentences. Start a fresh list for these.
