Вот подробный разбор каждого предложения с правильным использованием времени Past Simple (простое прошедшее) и Past Continuous (длительное прошедшее).


1) What were you doing when I called you last night?

  • Explanation: "Were you doing" – длительное действие в прошлом (Past Continuous), которое происходило, когда другое действие (Past Simple – "I called") его прервало.

2) I was sitting in a cafe when you called.

  • Explanation: "Was sitting" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), происходящее в прошлом, которое было прервано другим действием (Past Simple – "you called").

3) When you arrived at the party, who was there?

  • Explanation: "Arrived" – конкретное завершённое действие (Past Simple). "Was" – состояние в прошлом (Past Simple).

4) Susie was watching a film when she heard the noise.

  • Explanation: "Was watching" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), которое прервалось другим завершённым действием (Past Simple – "she heard").

5) Yesterday I went to the library, next I had a swim, later I met Julie for coffee.

  • Explanation: Все действия – последовательные события, завершённые в прошлом, поэтому используется Past Simple.

6) We were playing tennis when John hurt his ankle.

  • Explanation: "Were playing" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), которое прервалось завершённым действием (Past Simple – "John hurt").

7) What were they doing at 10pm last night – it was really noisy?

  • Explanation: "Were they doing" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), происходящее в определённый момент в прошлом.

8) He was taking a shower when the telephone rang.

  • Explanation: "Was taking" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), которое прервалось другим завершённым действием (Past Simple – "the telephone rang").

9) He was in the shower when the telephone rang.

  • Explanation: "Was" – состояние в прошлом (Past Simple), "rang" – завершённое действие (Past Simple).

10) When I walked into the room, everyone was working.

- **Explanation:** "Walked" – завершённое действие (Past Simple), "was working" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), которое происходило в тот момент.

11) It was a day last September. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. I was walking along the street when I met an old friend.

- **Explanation:** "Was" – состояние в прошлом (Past Simple). "Was shining" и "were singing" – описания фона (Past Continuous). "Was walking" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), "met" – завершённое действие (Past Simple).

12) He was living in Russia when the Revolution started.

- **Explanation:** "Was living" – длительное состояние (Past Continuous), "started" – завершённое действие (Past Simple).

13) When her train got to the station, we were waiting on the platform.

- **Explanation:** "Got" – завершённое действие (Past Simple), "were waiting" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), происходившее в этот момент.

14) He was so annoying! He was always leaving his things everywhere.

- **Explanation:** "Was" – состояние в прошлом (Past Simple). "Was always leaving" – повторяющееся действие в прошлом, выраженное в Past Continuous (часто используется с наречиями частоты, такими как "always").

15) On holiday we visited Rome, saw the Vatican, and spent a few days at the beach.

- **Explanation:** Все действия – последовательные события, завершённые в прошлом, поэтому используется Past Simple.

16) Why were you standing on a chair when I came into the room?

- **Explanation:** "Were you standing" – длительное действие (Past Continuous), происходящее в момент завершённого действия (Past Simple – "I came").

17) They lived in Germany when they were young.

Обобщение:

  • Когда одно действие прерывает другое, прерывающее используется в Past Simple, а длительное – в Past Continuous.

Давайте разберем каждое предложение и преобразуем его в прошедшую простую (past simple) или прошедшую продолженную (past continuous) форму.

1) What were you doing when I called you last night?

  • Здесь используется past continuous (were doing), так как действие было в процессе, когда произошло другое действие (called).

2) I was sitting in a cafe when you called.

  • Аналогично, past continuous (was sitting) указывает на действие, происходившее в момент, когда произошло другое действие (called).

3) When you arrived at the party, who was there?

  • Здесь past simple (arrived) указывает на завершенное действие, а past simple (was) описывает состояние в момент прибытия.

4) Susie was watching a film when she heard the noise.

  • Past continuous (was watching) показывает, что действие происходило, когда произошло другое действие (heard).

5) Yesterday I went to the library, next I had a swim, later I met Julie for coffee.

  • Все три глагола (went, had, met) в past simple, так как они описывают последовательные завершенные действия.

6) We were playing tennis when John hurt his ankle.

  • Past continuous (were playing) используется для действия в процессе, когда произошло другое действие (hurt).

7) What were they doing at 10pm last night - it was really noisy?

  • Past continuous (were doing) здесь указывает на действие, происходившее в определенный момент времени.

8) He was taking a shower when the telephone rang.

  • Past continuous (was taking) подчеркивает, что действие происходило в момент, когда произошло другое действие (rang).

9) He was in the shower when the telephone rang.

  • Здесь past continuous (was) показывает состояние, когда произошло другое действие (rang).

10) When I walked into the room, everyone was working.

- Past simple (walked) для завершенного действия и past continuous (was working) для действия, происходившего в этот момент.

11) It was a day last September. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. I was walking along the street when I met an old friend.

- Past simple (was) для описания состояния и past continuous (was shining, were singing, was walking) для действий, происходивших в это время.

12) He was living in Russia when the Revolution started.

- Past continuous (was living) для длительного действия и past simple (started) для завершенного действия.

13) When her train got to the station, we were waiting on the platform.

- Past simple (got) для завершенного действия и past continuous (were waiting) для длительного действия.

14) He is so annoying! He always leaves his things everywhere.

- Здесь лучше использовать простое настоящее время, чтобы передать регулярное действие. В прошедшем времени: He **was** so annoying! He **was always leaving** his things everywhere.

15) On holiday we visited Rome, saw the Vatican, and spent a few days at the beach.

- Все глаголы в past simple, так как описывают последовательные завершенные действия.

16) Why were you standing on a chair when I came into the room?

- Past continuous (were standing) для действия в процессе и past simple (came) для завершенного действия.

17) They lived in Germany when they were young.

- Past simple (lived) для завершенного действия и past simple (were) для описания состояния.

18) At 7pm yesterday, we were listening to music.

- Past continuous (were listening) показывает действие, происходившее в определенный момент времени.

Таким образом, мы видим, что прошедшая простая форма используется для завершенных действий, а прошедшая продолженная форма — для действий, происходивших в определенный момент времени или длительно.
