Spiegazione

1. She is happy today. L'aggettivo happy segue is.
2. I am reading a book now. L'azione si sta svolgendo ora: Present Continuous, am + reading.
3. My father is a kind tall old man. Gli aggettivi seguono l'ordine opinione-dimensione-età prima del sostantivo.
4. She usually works in the bank from nine to five. Un'azione regolare prende il Present Simple; aggiungere -s dopo she.
5. The children are playing in the garden right now. Right now si riferisce al momento presente.
6. He looks tired after school. Il verbo concatenante looks è seguito dall'aggettivo tired.
7. We like tea, but he likes all hot drinks except tea. But esprime un contrasto.
8. I usually have breakfast at seven. Have breakfast è un'espressione fissa che descrive un'azione di routine qui.
9. Look! The bus is arriving now. Look e now segnalano un'azione in corso in questo momento; the bus richiede is.
10. I usually feel hungry after school. Lo stato ripetuto prende il Present Simple: feel.
