动词的一般过去式
was/were+动词的现在分词形式
表示过去某个时刻或时段正在进行的动作或存在的状态。
Presentation
过去进行时
一般来说，要表示过去某个时刻或某一时段正在进行的动作，我们常使用过去进行时。
常和过去进行时连用的时间状语有: then, at this / that time, yesterday, at..., last night等。
E.g. I was reading a book at that time.
We were having a party at nine last night.
You were sleeping then.
They were playing basketball at 4 pm yesterday.
Presentation
过去进行时的构成
1.肯定句
主语＋was / were+动词现在分词＋其它
E.g. Alice was sitting with her sister by the river.
They were having a tea party in the garden.
Presentation
2.否定句
主语＋was / were not +动词现在分词＋其它
E.g. I wasn’t reading a book at that time.
We weren’t having a party at nine last night.
3. 一般疑问句及其回答
—Was / Were＋主语＋动词现在分词＋其它
—Yes, 主语＋was /were. / No, 主语＋was /were not.
E.g. —Were you reading a book at that time
—Yes, I was. / No, I was not.
—Were you having a party at nine last night
—Yes, we were. / No, we were not.
Presentation
一般过去时和过去进行时的区别
这两种时态虽然都表示过去发生的事情，但是过去进行时强调过去某一时刻或时段正在进行或持续的动作;一般过去时表示过去的时间里所发生的动作，所表示的动作往往已经完成。
E.g. Laura was reading a novel at eight o’clock last night.
Laura read a novel last night.

Presentation
Look at the sentences and answer the question.
① When the bell rang, we were having class.
② While we were having class, the bell rang.
What’s the difference between the words
短暂动作
持续动作
Presentation
动词类型：ring 短暂性动词，having class 是长动作 即 持续性动词，when 可接两种动词，while 只能接持续性动词
从句时态：when 引导的从句可配一般过去时 / 过去进行时，while 引导的从句多配过去进行时；主句时态需与从句呼应（如从句过去进行时，主句一般过去时）。
强调点：when 侧重 “某个时间点 / 短动作发生时，另一个动作正在进行”，while 侧重 “两个持续动作同时进行”；
