Present simple and continuous: (read, have, interview, watch, write, work, be)

1. Ben <u>reads</u> a book after lunch every day.

2. We <u>are working </u>at a club for three weeks in the holidays.

3. Cathy <u>watches </u>all the soap operas on TV.

4.Mick <u>has</u> a stressful lifestyle, he<u> is </u>a police officer.

5.I <u>am writing</u> a book about London. I am <u>interviewing</u> some businessman at the moment.

Explanation:

We use the present continuous to talk about a thing that is happening or that we are doing at the moment, to talk about plans and temporary situations.

To write affirmative sentences:

He, she, it + is+ verb with ing. For example, he is cooking.

We, you, they, you + are+ verb with ing. For example, you are watching a film.

I + am+ verb with ing. For example, I am running.

To make negative sentences:

He, she, it+ is not /isn't+ verb with ing. For example, He isn't cooking at the moment.

We, you, they, you+ are not/ aren't + verb with ing. For example, you aren't watching a film.

I+ am not+ verb with ing. For example, I am not running.

If we want to make questions, we write first the auxiliary verb and then the subject and the verb with ing. For example, Are you watching the show? , or is she cooking?

We use the present simple to talk about habits, general truths, and to express emotions.

To make affirmative sentences:

He, she it+ verb with s. For example, He drives to school every morning.

We, you, they, you+ verb without s. For example, they go to the bar every Saturday.

I + verb without s. For example, I love pasta.

To make negative sentences:

He, she it+ does not /doesn't + verb without s. For example, She doesn't drive to school every morning.

We, you, they, you, i+ do not/ don't+ verb without s. For example, We don't go to the bar every Saturday.

To make questions we write first the auxiliary does or do, depending on the subject, the subject and the verb without s. For example, do you like pizza? or does he eat lunch?

The answer is: through colorful description.

In the excerpt, instead of directly stating what was seen, the author chooses to describe it in a colorful manner so as to instigate the readers imagination. It's as if the reader is able to keep up with every thought the speaker had, the way the speaker's own brain interpreted what was seen. To make the image more vivid, the author narrates the action step by step, with aesthetic descriptions: billowy, coiled and wriggled for the movement; greyish and luminous for the color; disks like eyes, thickness of a snake for the image.
