Sarah Miller is in New York. She is writing a letter to her best
friend.
Dear Sophia, How are you?
How is London? I am having
a very good time in New York.
It’s Sunday and it’s sunny and
warm. Now it’s ten in the
morning and we are in Central Park. I am sitting under a tree, I
am listening to my radio… and I am writing to you, of course. My
Canadian cousin Rosemary is here next to me, she is reading a
comic. She’s very pretty. She’s tall and slim and she has got long
wavy brown hair. Her parents are in Toronto. My father is here too
in front of me, reading The New York Times, an American
newspaper. My mother is playing with my little brother Jimmy on
the grass and they are eating popcorn, wich is in a bag.
There are many people in the park. Some girls are walking their dogs, and an old
man is running behind the soccer field!
And he can do that quiet fast .
We are in this wonderful park, because we are relaxing here. But sometimes we
visit other interesting places: museums, shops, galleries, etc… New York is
great!
There are many fantastic skyscrapers, great shops and there are people
everywhere

 PRESENT CONTINUOUS
The present continuous (also called present progressive) is a 
verb tense which is used to show that an action is happening
now, either at the moment of speech. The present continuous
can also be used to show that an action is going to take place in
the near future.
HOW DO WE FORM PRESENT CONTINUOUS?
The present continuous is formed using am/is/are + a verb
adding ing.
Statement: You are watching TV.
Negative: You are not watching TV.
USE 1 Now
present continuous now

With normal verbs to express the idea that something is

happening now, at moment of the speaking. It can also be used
to show that something is not happening now.

USE 2
Longer Actions in Progress Now

Sometimes, we use the present continuous to say that we are in

the process of doing a longer action which is in progress;
however, we might not be doing it at this exact second.

She is not studying to become a dentist.
They are reading the book Tom Sawyer.
