LEARN THIS! Present simple and continuous
We use:
a the for habits and routines.
b the about now. for something happening now or
c the. for describing annoying behaviour
(with always)
d the for a permanent situation or fact.
e the for timetables and schedules.
f the for future arrangements.

LEARN THIS! Dynamic, stative and linking verbs in the continuous form
a Dynamic verbs describe actions and can be used in the simple or continuous form.
b Stative verbs describe states or situations and are not usually used in continuous tenses. Common stative verbs include:
believe belong hate know like love mean mind
need prefer remember understand want
c Linking verbs serve as a connection between a subject and further information about that subject. We normally use the present simple (not continuous) with linking verbs. Some linking verbs are:
be become seem appear sound smell look feel taste
d However, some stative verbs and linking verbs can sometimes be used in the continuous form to describe a temporary situation.
