Answer 2

1. Do you know Sarah? She is getting married next month!

Explanation: We use the present continuous tense to express future actions/events that have been planned or arranged in advance. In this case, Sarah's wedding is already planned for next month.

2. This film starts at 2 pm.

Explanation: We use the present simple tense to express future actions/events that are based on a fixed schedule. In this case, the film has a specific starting time of 2 pm.

3. Next week Steve is buying a car. He has a lot of money.

Explanation: We use the present continuous tense to express future actions/events when there is a clear intention or plan to do something. In this case, Steve has already made a decision to buy a car and has the financial means to do so.
