Question

Put the verb in the brackets in the more suitable form, present continuous or present simple:

We ________ (have) a party next Saturday. Would you like to come, Corrie?

• A. are having / 're having
• B. were having
• C. have had
• D. have

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

are having / 're having

Present continuous tense is used to describe an action or event in the future, which has already been planned or prepared. Here, 'the party' has been planned. The syntax for present continuous tense is : is / am / are + verb (ing). Therefore, the correct answer is : are having.
