Explicação:
No present simple o verbo "to be" possui três formas: am / is / are - variando conforme o sujeito da frase em questão. No geral, vale lembrar que "is" é singular e "are" é plural :)
I am
You are
He/ She is
We / They are
Já os outros verbos como "report" e "get" recebem a letra S quando são terceira pessoal do singular (he she) e também em "either" (qualquer), "who" (quem) e "everyone" (todo mundo).
