Verbos que não expressam continuidade NÃO devem ser usados no present continuous.

Exemplo:

I am studying for the test. - expressa continuidade. Eu estou estudando agora, hoje, amanhã até o dia da prova.

I am going to the club.  - expressa continuidade. Eu estou indo ao clube no momento.

I am liking the icecream. - ERRADO >>> liking, no caso, não expressa continuidade.

I like icecream.  >>> CORRETO

Estrutura do Present Continuous

Sujeito + verbo to be + verbo -ing + complemento

 Susan        is                   studying    for the tests.
