Grammar
64. 过去进行时
我们可以用过去进行时表示过去某一时刻正在进行的动作或过去某一阶段一直在进行的动作。
肯定结构是由“was/were + 动词ing
否定结构是由“was/ were + not + 动词ing
◆ 有些动词通常不用于进行时，主要有：
(1) 表心理状态、情感的动词，如love, hate, like, know等
(2) 部分连系动词，如seem, appear等
(3) 感官动词，如see, hear, smell, sound, taste等
(4) 短暂性动词，如decide, stop等
65. “当……时候”when、while 和 as 的用法
◆ when 和 as 既可以指某一点时间，也可以指某一段时间，其引导的从句中的谓语动词表示的动作既可以是瞬间性的，也可以是延续性的；
while 指一段时间，其引导的从句中的谓语动词必须是延续性的。
指一段时间时，when、while 和 as 都可用；
指某一点时间时，只能用 when 或 as，不能用 while
◆ 当某个动作正在进行时，又发生了另一动作，我们常用过去进行时表示正在进行的长动作，用一般过去时表示短动作。此时 when、while、as 都可以连接主从句，构成“一般过去时 + when/while/as + 过去进行时”结构，过去进行时动作成为一般过去时动作发生的“背景”。这种情况下，连词 when、while、as 既可位于句中，也可位于句首。
◆ 谈论两个同时进行的长动作（事件、情况），常用“过去进行时 + while + 过去进行时”结构。while 也可位于句首。
◆ 强调某个动作正在进行时，另一个动作突然发生，常用“过去进行时 + when + 一般过去时”结构。
