Answer 2

Deepa cooks chapati for lunch.

• The given sentence is in present continuous tense. That's why, the verb arrangement is : [is + (verb+ing)].
• Now, we have to change the above mentioned verb arrangement, in order to change the tense of the given sentence into simple present tense.
• The verb arrangement for simple present tense will be : [V1]. Here, we have added "s" with the V1 form of the main verb, because the subject of the sentence is singular.
• Thus, by replacing "is cooking" with "cooks", we have converted the tense of the given sentence into simple present tense.
