Answer:

Well, I can't quite determine if you mean for this to be a trick question or if you are serious.

I say that because technically speaking, A and C show future tense, while B and D show past tense.

Of all the options, A is the best one to represent the present tense. While it certainly can represent the present tense, it does a much better job at representing the future tense. Yes, really. Let me give you some other examples so you'll see what I mean.....

Explanation:

Today, I'm leaving for Paris on the 4:00 p.m. flight.   =    future tense

Today, the army is sending me to boot camp.    =   future tense

.......................

I should add....

If you were to say:  "Today, I'm babysitting my nephew."  --- and you said it at the moment that you are in the house next to your nephew -- then, THAT would be present tense.

In this example, we're talking about an action that is happening at the moment of speaking unlike option A above which refers to an action that hasn't happened yet.

Have you got it??
