1. Jacky is wearing a blue skirt today.
Explanation: To form the Present Continuous tense, we use the present form of the verb "to be" (am, is, are) followed by the present participle of the main verb. In this sentence, the subject is Jacky and the verb is "wear." Since Jacky is a singular third-person pronoun, we use "is" as the form of "to be" that agrees with it. The present participle of "wear" is "wearing." Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "is wearing."

2. Where is Mike going?
Explanation: In this sentence, the subject is Mike and the verb is "go." Since Mike is a singular third-person pronoun, we use "is" as the form of "to be" that agrees with it. The present participle of "go" is "going." Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "is going."

3. He is not doing Exercise 3. I am doing Exercise 2.
Explanation: Again, we use the present form of the verb "to be" with the corresponding subject. In the first part of the sentence, the subject is "he." Since "he" is a singular third-person pronoun, we use "is" as the form of "to be" that agrees with it. The present participle of "do" is "doing." Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "is doing." In the second part of the sentence, the subject is "I." Since "I" is a first-person pronoun, we use "am" as the form of "to be" that agrees with it. The present participle of "do" is also "doing." Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "am doing."

4. A: Is Dan driving his dad's car? B: Yes, he is.
Explanation: In this conversation, the verb "to be" is already provided, so we only need to form the present participle of the verb "drive." The present participle of "drive" is "driving." Since the subject is "he" (referring to Dan), we use "is" as the form of "to be" that agrees with it. Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "is driving."

5. John is not working. He is sleeping!
Explanation: Once again, we use the present form of the verb "to be" with the corresponding subject. In the first sentence, the subject is "John." Since "John" is a singular third-person pronoun, we use "is" as the form of "to be" that agrees with it. The present participle of "work" is "working." Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "is working." In the second sentence, we use "is" with the present participle "sleeping" to indicate John's current activity.

6. Who are you phoning?
Explanation: In this sentence, the subject is "you," which is a second-person pronoun. When using the present continuous tense with second-person pronouns, we use "are" as the form of "to be" that agrees with it. The present participle of "phone" is "phoning." Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "are phoning."
