How are you doing now? Here, all family is well. Though i am really busy right now, i'm still waiting for you. What a good friends, right? Ha ha!
We are all getting really for my grandmother's seventieth birthday. There is big family party this evening in the garden. With about 40 people. Some of my aunts, uncles, and their children are here because today we're preparing for the party. My dad is putting up lights in the garden at the moment my uncles are organizing tables and chairs. My mother is cooking in the kitchen and my aunts are halping her. My cousins are here too. How ever, they aren't helping much. They're playing computer games right now. Are you wondering what i am doing now? Why am i not helping them? Actually, i am helping to prepare music. Now, i am downloading some old songs. Then i remember that you know much more about music than me. Do you have any suggestions about the best music for my grandmother's birthday party?
If you're online, please write an email soon.
I'm waiting for your rereply.

Penjelasan:Pengertian Present Continuous Tense
Present continuous tense adalah bentuk tense yang digunakan untuk menyatakan bahwa suatu aksi sedang berlangsung selama waktu tertentu pada waktu sekarang (present). Bentuk ini menunjukkan bahwa aksi tersebut terjadi sebelum (begins before), selama (is in progress at the present), dan berlanjut setelah (continues after) waktu atau aksi lainnya.
Apabila kita sudah memahami simple present tense, selanjutnya tidaklah sulit untuk mengerti aspek lain dari bingkai waktu present ini.
Contoh kalimat:
It is 16.00. They are discussing something right now.
