this year is trying to finish vs this year has already finished

The two phrases are not comparable as they convey different meanings. "This year is trying to finish" implies that the year is currently in progress and is attempting to come to an end, which is an unusual and awkward phrasing. On the other hand, "This year has already finished" indicates that the year has completed, which is the correct and commonly used expression.
