    e. We’re here on holiday. We are staying  at the Central Hotel.

    f. “Where’s Sue?” “She is taking a shower.”

    Explicação:

    Present Continuous >>> tempo verbal que expressa quando queremos falar de algo que está acontecendo no momento em que falamos.  Pode vir acompanhado de ''now'' - ''right now'' - ''at the moment''

    Estrutura do Present Continuous

    Verbo ''to be'' am - is - are + verbo -ing  + complemento

    I                      am             cooking           dinner           at the moment.

    John              is                playing          video game    now.

    My sons        are              watching              TV            right now.

    ⇒  Regras para o uso do present continuous

    ∴ Quando o verbo termina com ''ie'', troca o ''ie'' por ''ying''

           die – dying

           lie – lying

    ∴ Se o verbo termina em ''e'' precedido de consoante, tira o ''e'' e acrescenta ''ing''

          dance - dancing

           come - coming

    Observação: exceção para o verbo ''to be''

    to be - being

    ∴ Quando o verbo termina em CVC - consoante - vogal - consoante e o verbo tem uma ou duas sílabas, dobra a última consoante e acrescenta ''ing'' . Mas se o verbo terminar em ''x'' ou ''w'', não se aplica essa regra.

          swim - swimming

           cut - cutting

           snow - snowing

    ∴ Se o verbo tiver uma ou duas sílabas e a sílaba tônica for a primeira, é só acrescentar ''ing''.

           open - opening

           happen - happening
