**Объяснение:**
В этом упражнении необходимо использовать настоящее продолженное время (Present Continuous) для заполнения пропусков. Present Continuous образуется с помощью вспомогательного глагола "to be" в настоящем времени (am, is, are) и смыслового глагола с окончанием -ing.
1. **are enjoying:** Множественное число (we) + глагол "to be" (are) + глагол "enjoy" с окончанием -ing.
2. **are enjoying:** Множественное число (Betty and I - we) + глагол "to be" (are) + глагол "enjoy" с окончанием -ing.
3. **are not visiting:** Множественное число (we) + отрицательная форма глагола "to be" (are not) + глагол "visit" с окончанием -ing.
4. **are relaxing:** Множественное число (we) + глагол "to be" (are) + глагол "relax" с окончанием -ing.
5. **are walking:** Множественное число (families) + глагол "to be" (are) + глагол "walk" с окончанием -ing.
6. **are having:** Множественное число (families) + глагол "to be" (are) + глагол "have" с окончанием -ing.
7. **is resting:** Единственное число (Betty) + глагол "to be" (is) + глагол "rest" с окончанием -ing.
8. **is drinking:** Единственное число (she) + глагол "to be" (is) + глагол "drink" с окончанием -ing.
9. **am writing:** Единственное число (I) + глагол "to be" (am) + глагол "write" с окончанием -ing.
10. **are you planning:** Вопросительная форма с (you) + глагол "to be" (are) + глагол "plan" с окончанием -ing.
Таким образом, мы заполнили пропуски глаголами в форме Present Continuous, чтобы показать действия, которые происходят в настоящий момент.
