English Tense Tense Question #5859 (CAT-I)

Look! The children ______ in the park.

A play
B are playing
C played
D have played
Correct Answer & Explanation
Option B
• The exclamation 'Look!' indicates an action that is happening at the very moment of speaking. • Actions in progress at the time of speaking are expressed in the Present Continuous Tense. • The structure for Present Continuous Tense is Subject + am/is/are + V1-ing. • 'The children' is a plural subject, so 'are playing' is the correct form.
