现在进行时的作用
就如所有英语中的时态一样，说话者的态度与动作或事件发生的时间一样重要。当某人使用了现在进行时，他们就是认为某件事未完成或不完整
使用现在进行式的情况：
- 描述某个动作目前正在发生：you are using the internet. you are studying english grammar.
- 描述某个动作正在这段时间或趋势发生：are you still working for the same company? more and more people are becoming vegetarian.
- 描述某个未来的动作或事件，而这个动作或事件已经是规划或准备好的：we're going on holiday tomorrow. i'm meeting my boyfriend tonight. are they visiting you next winter?
- 描述一个暂时的事件或情况：he usually plays the drums, but he's playing bass guitar tonight. the weather forecast was good, but it's raining at the moment.
- 用 always, forever, constantly 等副词来描述和强调一个不断反覆发生的动作：harry and sally are always arguing! you're constantly complaining about your mother-in-law!
要注意！有些动词通常不会用在进行时。
