3) complete the text with the present continous form of the verbs in brackets Good morning, everybody....

To complete the text using the present continuous form of the verbs in brackets, we need to ensure each verb is correctly conjugated to match the subject and tense. Here is the completed text:

Good morning, everybody. I am speaking from Mount Surprising, the giant volcano. The team of scientists is visiting the volcano, and I am here for Big TV, just in case anything exciting happens. I am standing here near the top of the crater, and am looking down into the volcano. At the moment two scientists are climbing down into the crater. It doesn’t look very dangerous, I must say, but they are wearing special clothes and a rescue team is standing by just in case! A little bit of smoke is rising from the volcano, but that’s normal. Now the scientists are setting up their equipment. They are trying to collect some gas, which will help them understand what exactly is going on under the volcano. Wait a minute! Something is happening! The ground is shaking! The four scientists are climbing out of the volcano as quickly as they can. They are shouting something as well. I think it’s time to leave!

Each verb is now in the present continuous tense, which is used to describe ongoing actions or situations happening at the moment of speaking.

b (visit) are visiting c (stand) am standing d (look) am looking e (climb) are climbing f (wear) are wearing g (stand by) are standing by h (rise) is rising i (set) are setting j (try) are trying k (go on) is going on l (happen) is happening m (shake) is shaking n (climb) are climbing o (shout) are shouting
