Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is: I'm not wearing
Key Points
- The sentence is in the present tense, indicating a current action.
- The use of "don't" indicates a negative present action.
- The contraction "I'm" is a common way to say "I am" in spoken English.
- However, to convey the same idea in a more natural and specific way, it's better to use the present continuous tense "am not wearing" because it emphasizes the ongoing action.
- "Currently" is used to indicate the time frame in which the action is happening, which is in line with the original phrase "at the moment."
Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
Additional Information
- "I didn't wear" is in the past tense and does not accurately reflect the current action.
- "I wore" is also in the past tense and does not accurately reflect the current action.
- "I was wearing" is in the past continuous tense and implies that the action was interrupted or ended.
