Answer 2

Here are the correct forms of the verbs for each sentence:

1. This food smells delicious. (smells)
2. He goes to the gym every week. (goes)
3. Right now Tony is washing his car. (is washing)
4. Laurie always goes to work at seven. (goes)
5. He usually phones in the evening. (phones)
6. We are going to the movies at six tonight. (are going)

In most of these sentences, the simple present tense is used for habitual actions, while the present continuous tense is used for actions happening at the moment or planned for the near future. However, for some verbs like "believe" and "remember," the simple present tense is used because they typically don't occur in continuous forms.
