Which of these is not a function of the present tense?

Ato indicate a general truth
Bto discuss your thoughts when writing
Cto express something that you hope will happen
Dto describe events that are happening right now

Verified Answer :

Present tenses can be used for general truths and facts since they are unchanging throughout time so A is correct. Present tense of course tells events happening at the moment or at present so B and D is correct. C is incorrect since something that will still happen is in the future so that usage should be in the future tense, not present tense.

The answer is D.
