The present continuous is usually use to talk about present event that we see
as the short-term. We use present simple to talk about present event and it show the long-term. There is some of example the below:
- It is raining.
- Who is Linda talking to on the telephone?

These are the example of Present simple:
- I am looking for a new apartment.
- He is thinking about leaving his work.
- They are considering making the appeal against the judgment.
- Are you getting enough sleep?
In this example the action has been finished. For example:
- I am meeting it at 7:00.
- They are not arriving a special dinner at a top restaurant for all the senior managers.
