Q1: Simple present(1)

Hello teachers; 

I read that 'simple present tense' is used when the beginning or the end of an action, event or a condition is unknown or is unimportant to the meaning of the sentence. But I didn't get what exactly they meant. Teachers, please tell me what it means with an example or two. 

Thank you.

It's hard to know. The description focuses more on the negative than on the positive (unknown, unimportant). In your place I would just concentrate on the examples and not worry about this
