Question

Identifique no texto abaixo frases que expressam ações que acontecem no simple present:

It doesn’t matter what you are doing right now, you should stop and watch Save Ralph, a star-studded animated short that is part of a campaign to ban animal testing for cosmetic products. The short was released today, right after Easter, and features a bunny whose job is to make sure all the products you find in your toilet are safe for human use, even if it means putting himself at risk.

Using a fake-documentary format, Save Ralph follows the routine of the working rabbit Ralph, voiced by Taika Waititi. Ralph is blind from one eye, can only hear a ringing sound on his right year, and his body is covered by chemical burns that make it painful to move. The script gets Ralph’s testimony about the importance of his work, and the self-contempt the rabbit shows should be amusing in contrast to the real horrors he faces. However, Ralph’s situation is so shocking that’s hard to laugh at the irony, even when the rabbit constantly repeats his work is essential to human life, and he would be unemployed if animal testing were banned.

A lot of big names in the movie industry lent their voices to the project, as secondary rabbits, in order to show their support for the cause and increase awareness of the issue. Besides Waititi, Save Ralph also features the voice talents of Ricky Gervais, Zac Efron, Olivia Munn, Pom Klementieff, Rodrigo Santoro, and Tricia Helfer.
