Answer 2

Sure, let's break it down:

1. A: "So, Enrique, what do you do/are you doing?" - E: "I am an architect."

In this case, "do" is the correct form because it's asking about Enrique's profession, which is a general statement.

2. A: "Do you work/Are you working alone, or with a team?" - E: "I run/am running my own office with a partner."

Both "work" and "are working" are acceptable here, but "work" is slightly more common in this context. It's asking about Enrique's usual work situation.

3. A: "And do you work/are you working long hours?" - E: "Sometimes, yes. Right now, we‟re busy, so we work/are working 10-12 hours a day. But it is not always like that."

Here, both "work" and "are working" are acceptable. The choice between them doesn't significantly change the meaning of the sentence. Enrique is describing his current working hours.

4. A: "What do you work/are you working on at the moment? Anything interesting?" - E: "Yes, we design/are designing a sports and leisure centre, and it‟s very exciting."

Either "design" or "are designing" is acceptable. Both convey the idea that Enrique is currently involved in the process of designing a sports and leisure centre.

5. A: "Do you ever get/Are you ever getting stressed out?" - E: "Very rarely. I don’t work/am not working alone, so we share/are sharing the worry!"

Here, "get stressed out" and "are getting stressed out" are both correct, but the second option emphasizes the ongoing nature of stress. Similarly, both "share" and "are sharing" work, but the latter emphasizes the ongoing action of sharing the worry.

Overall, in many of these cases, either form can be used without a significant change in meaning.
