Hi Anna Lisa,
Another excellent set of exercises! You have mastered your past, present and future tenses! Well done!
1)I'm studYing.I have been studYing
3)We HAD been on holiday when they had (omit 'had a') terrible news about a friend of theirS
(There are occasions when we say 'had had', but this sentence does not require another 'had'.)
4) (We would not say: It hasn't been raining for months).
5)We would say: He always speaks
10)destroyed
