Read the following passage:
returning from vietnam, we were indeed given a parade.
crowds of screaming people waving signs - not just on
one road, one day. no, they were everywhere. every day. on
the streets, on the television, on the radio. a hot, angry
tangle of shaking fists and ugly words that threatened us
like a monster with a hundred heads. our country had
chewed us up and spit us out, and now we were being
treated as if it were our fault.
what is one way the author's use of language contributes to the tone of this
passage?
o
a. the use of figurative language creates a feeling of resentment.
b. the parallelism draws attention to the confusion of those

a, b, and c are all correct.

the present continuous is a verb tense which is mainly used to indicates that an action is in progress at the moment of speaking.  

it is formed using: person + verb to be (am/is/are) +verb + - ing form  

example: i am studying at this moment .

in addition, the present continuous is also used in order to express things that will or will not happen in the near future.

example: i am having dinner with some friends tonight.

the speaker sometimes   uses it   to express that an action is repeated and it causes irritation on the part of the speaker

example: my sister is constantly complaining about everything.
