Hello, I'd like to ask about these examples from my textbook:
1."I usually practise for five hours a week. At the moment I am practising for the concert so I practise for three hours every day."
and
2. "When she is getting ready for a match she trains every day."
Here the usage of present simple tense (verbs in bold) seems slightly awkward to me as the situation appears to be temporary.
Could anyone provide a detailed and convincing explanation for or against? I am confused as
these were the answers provided by the answer key.Thank you so much for yur help.
