In English grammar, the present simple and present perfect tenses are used to talk about actions or states in different ways.

Present Simple is used for: - General truths or facts: "The sun rises in the east." - Habits or routines: "I brush my teeth every morning." - Permanent situations: "She lives in London."

Present Perfect is used for: - Actions or events that started in the past and continue to the present: "I have lived in this city for five years." - Actions or events that happened at an unspecified time in the past: "He has visited Paris." - Actions or events that have a result or impact on the present: "She has lost her keys."

Let's analyze the given sentences:

1) Marzhan has come back from her hiking trip. She's exhausted. - The use of "has come" indicates that the action of coming back from the hiking trip happened recently and has a connection to the present. The present perfect tense is used here to emphasize the result or impact of the action.
