Answer 3

To put the verbs in brackets into the present simple or the present continuous, we can follow these guidelines:

1. It often rains in winter?

For this sentence, we use the present simple tense "rains" to talk about a habitual action or a general fact.

2. Where do you live?

Here, we use the present simple tense "do...live" to ask about someone's current place of residence, which is a general fact or a habitual action.

3. What are you doing now?

In this case, we use the present continuous tense "are...doing" to ask about an action that is happening at the present moment.

4. She is going to school on foot today.

Here, we use the present continuous tense "is...going" to describe an action that is happening at the present moment or around the present time.

5. He doesn't swim well.

We use the present simple tense "doesn't...swim" to talk about a general fact or habitual action of not swimming well.

These are the appropriate tenses for the given sentences. Let me know if you need further explanation on any of these examples!
