The present progressive is formed using the following formula:

verb estar + present participle

Spanish present participles end in ndo, and is the equivalent of the English ending ing.

<h2>1. Right answer: </h2>

Miguel Ángel y yo estamos leyendo el periódico

Since Miguel Ángel y yo can be replaced by the subject pronoun for the first person plural nosotros, then we need to choose the conjugation of the verb estar that matches this person in the simple present, which is estamos. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb leer is leyendo. Finally, this sentence translates into:

Miguel Ángel and I are reading the newspaper

<h2>2. Right answer: </h2>

Mónica y Ana están confirmando la reservación

Since Mónica y Ana can be replaced by the subject pronoun for the third person plural ellas, then we need to choose the conjugation of the verb estar that matches this person in the simple present, which is están. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb confirmar is confirmando. Finally, this sentence translates into:

Monica and Ana are confirming the reservation

<h2>3. Right answer: </h2>

Tú estás oyendo al agente de viajes.

This sentence stands for the second person singular (tú). Hence we need to choose the conjugation of the verb estar that matches this person in the simple present, which is estás. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb oír is oyendo. Finally, this sentence translates into:

You are listening to the travel agent

<h2>4. Right answer: </h2>

El aeropuerto está cerrando

This sentence stands for the third person singular. Therefore, the matching conjugation of the verb estar for this person in the simple present is está. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb cerrar is cerrando. Finally, this sentence translates into

The airport is closing

<h2>5. Right answer: </h2>

Yo estoy escribiendo sobre el campo

This sentence stands for the first person singular (yo). Therefore, the matching conjugation of the verb estar for this person in the simple present is estoy. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb escribir is escribiendo. Finally, this sentence translates into

I am writing about the field
