What tense is the action "attending" in the sentence "She is attending training today"?

Past tense
Present tense
Future tense
Future perfect tense

The correct answer is: Present tense

The action "attending" in the sentence "She is attending training today" is accurately identified as being in the present tense. This is due to the use of the auxiliary verb "is," which indicates that the action is currently happening. The combination of "is" and the present participle "attending" forms the present continuous tense, which is used to describe actions taking place right now or in the present moment. In this context, stating that she "is attending" signifies that the event is occurring on the day of the statement, making it inherently present. The other tenses listed do not apply here; past tense refers to actions that have already been completed, future tense pertains to actions that will happen, and future perfect tense describes actions that will have been completed at a specified point in the future. Thus, the choice of present tense is correct in this context.
