Explicação:

Estrutura da forma Present Continuous:

Sujeito + Verbo To Be + Verbo no ING + Complemento.

Fazendo o primeiro temos:

My parents _______ dinner for us.

Sujeito ↑            Complemento ↑

Portanto, precisamos preencher com o verbo To Be e o verbo entre parênteses pedido na forma ING. Neste caso é o Prepare. Como "My parents" pode ser substituído por THEY, a forma do verbo To Be é ARE:

My parents are preparing dinner for us.

Agora basta aplicar a mesma lógica nos outros exercícios;

Donna _____ with Patrick:

Donna → She; portanto, o verbo To Be fica na forma IS:

Donna is dancing with Patrick.
