The simple present tense, particularly, refers to an action that occurs regularly, as a habit or routine, or something that is always true. It is usually used with adverbs of frequency (such as always, sometimes or never) or time expressions which indicate how often the action happens. For example:
<em>I go to school </em><u><em>everyday</em></u><em>.</em>
<em>I </em><u><em>never</em></u><em> play computer games in the evening.</em>
<span>The correct answer is the final sentence. The final sentence of this paragraph -- Ben sighed with satisfaction as he finally reached his trailer and opened the front door -- indicates that Ben likes living in Happy Trails Park. The other sentences illustrate that this is nice place to live: there are well-tended gardens, beautiful flowers, etc. However, only the final sentence proves that Ben is happy there, because we are told he "sighed with satisfaction" upon reaching his trailer.</span>
