Comprehensive worksheet designed to help students practice and master present time expressions in English grammar.

Explanation:
Let’s go through each part carefully.

Part D: Read the sentence and underline the correct forms of the verb.
We need to choose between present simple and present continuous (or other tenses), based on time clues and meaning.

1. *I play / I’m playing tennis right now.*
→ “right now” = happening at this moment → present continuous → I’m playing

2. *I go / I’m going jogging five times a week.*
→ “five times a week” = regular habit → present simple → I go

3. *We visit / We’re visiting my parents in law every Sunday.*
→ “every Sunday” = routine → present simple → We visit

4. *This morning, I clean / I’m cleaning the kitchen.*
→ “This morning” could be ambiguous, but since it’s not “this morning *at 8 a.m.*” and no specific time, and it's listed with other completed actions, we check context. However, in English, if it's *already* this morning and the action is happening *now*, we’d use continuous — but here, likely it's describing what happened *earlier today*. Wait — look at sentence 5: “Today, I wash / I’m washing the car.” That one is clearly happening now (present continuous). Sentence 4 says “This morning” — if it’s still morning and ongoing, maybe continuous, but standard usage for completed past events today uses present perfect or past simple. But the options are only present simple vs. present continuous. Since the worksheet is about *present* tenses, and “this morning” can be used with present continuous if it's still morning and the action is in progress — but more commonly in such exercises, if it's a completed action earlier today, they’d expect past tense — but that’s not an option. So we must assume the intended meaning is *currently* doing it. However, compare with #5: “Today, I ___ the car.” → “I’m washing” is correct (ongoing today). Similarly, #4: “This morning” (still morning) → likely I’m cleaning. But let’s hold and check others.

Actually, let’s look at the full list again — many sentences have clear time markers:

5. *Today, I wash / I’m washing the car.*
→ “Today” + action in progress → I’m washing

6. *I brush / I’m brushing my teeth three times a day.*
→ “three times a day” = habit → present simple → I brush

7. *My aunt is very religious. She pray / She’s praying to church every other day.*
→ “every other day” = routine → present simple → She prays
(Note: “She pray” is incorrect grammar; should be “She prays” — so correct choice is *She prays*)

8. *We use / We’re using the central heating a lot this week because it’s really cold.*
→ “this week” + temporary situation → present continuous → We’re using

9. *We watch / We’re watching football on TV at the moment.*
→ “at the moment” = right now → We’re watching

So back to #4: “This morning, I clean / I’m cleaning the kitchen.”
If it’s still morning and she’s doing it now → I’m cleaning
But if she already did it, it should be past tense — but not offered. Given all other continuous uses are for current/temporary, and #5 is “Today, I’m washing”, likely #4 is also ongoing → I’m cleaning

Wait — actually, in many ESL worksheets, “this morning**” with present simple is sometimes accepted for scheduled/planned events, but here no context suggests planning. Let’s double-check standard answers for such exercises.

Better approach: Look at answer patterns. Sentence 1: right now → continuous
Sentence 2: five times a week → simple
Sentence 3: every Sunday → simple
Sentence 5: Today (ongoing) → continuous
Sentence 6: three times a day → simple
Sentence 8: this week (temporary) → continuous
Sentence 9: at the moment → continuous
So #4: “This morning” — if it’s *still* morning and she’s doing it now, continuous. But if the worksheet expects consistency, and #5 is “today” → continuous, then #4 likely also continuous.

However, I recall that in some curricula, “this morning” with present simple is used for habitual actions (e.g., “I clean the kitchen this morning” sounds odd). More natural: “I cleaned…” but again, not an option.

Given the choices are only two, and the exercise is about present tenses, the intended answer for #4 is likely I’m cleaning, matching the pattern of current activity.

But wait — let’s check sentence 7 again: “She pray / She’s praying to church…” — “praying to church” is odd; usually “going to church” or “praying in church”. Probably a typo, but we pick grammatical form: “She prays” (simple present for habit).

Now Part E: Complete the sentences using one of the time expressions below.
Time expressions:
- today
- every day
- twice a day
- this week
- in the morning
- at the moment

1. I get up early _______.
→ Habit → every day

2. I’m feeling exhausted _______.
→ Right now → at the moment

3. Joe is talking to a client _______.
→ Happening now (implied by present continuous) → at the moment

4. I’m visiting my relatives _______, but I’ll be back at work next week.
→ Future plan, but “next week” implies soon; “this week” fits → this week

5. When I get up _______, my hair is always sticking up.
→ Routine → every day
(Or possibly “in the morning” — but “when I get up” already implies morning, so “every day” emphasizes frequency. However, “in the morning” is also possible. Let’s see: “When I get up in the morning, my hair…” is natural. And “every day” would be redundant with “when I get up”. So better: in the morning)

6. Bill eats meat _______ at lunch and at dinner.
→ “twice a day” matches lunch and dinner → twice a day

Part H: Match the questions with an appropriate answer.

1. How often do you wash your hair?
→ Answers:
a) I’m having breakfast and then going to class. (not about frequency)
b) I’m usually up at 7 a.m. (time of day)
c) I’m doing this exercise. (current)
d) I go every month with my friends. (frequency — but for cinema?)
e) I’m working all day.
f) Just twice a week. Shampoo is expensive. ✔ → matches “how often”

2. What are you doing this morning?
→ a) I’m having breakfast and then going to class. ✔

3. What do you wake up in the morning?
→ Likely typo: “What time do you wake up...?” Then b) I’m usually up at 7 a.m. ✔

4. What are you doing right now?
→ c) I’m doing this exercise. ✔

5. How often do you go to the cinema?
→ d) I go every month with my friends. ✔

6. What are you doing today?
→ e) I’m working all day. ✔
(Though a) is also about today, but a is *this morning*, while e covers whole day.)

Now let’s compile all correct answers:

D:
1. I’m playing
2. I go
3. We visit
4. I’m cleaning
5. I’m washing
6. I brush
7. She prays
8. We’re using
9. We’re watching

E:
1. every day
2. at the moment
3. at the moment
4. this week
5. in the morning
6. twice a day

H:
1 – f
2 – a
3 – b
4 – c
5 – d
6 – e

Double-check E#5: “When I get up _______, my hair is always sticking up.”
If we put “in the morning”, it’s: “When I get up in the morning, my hair…” — correct.
“Every day” would be: “When I get up every day…” which is grammatical but less common; usually we say “Every day when I get up…” or just “When I get up, my hair…” + “every day” is implied. But since “in the morning” is an option and fits perfectly, use that.

All consistent.

Final Answer:
D: 1. I’m playing, 2. I go, 3. We visit, 4. I’m cleaning, 5. I’m washing, 6. I brush, 7. She prays, 8. We’re using, 9. We’re watching
E: 1. every day, 2. at the moment, 3. at the moment, 4. this week, 5. in the morning, 6. twice a day
H: 1–f, 2–a, 3–b, 4–c, 5–d, 6–e
