Со временем группы Continuous обычно употребляется:

1. Present Continuous: now, right now, just now, at the moment, today, this week (month), these days, tonight (this evening)

2. Past Continuous: at that time, all day (night) long, at six o’clock, the whole evening (morning, afternoon), from seven to nine.
