新版八年级下册过去进行时讲解及习题(有讲解附练习)

过去进行时

一．概念：过去进行时主要表示过去某个时刻或某一阶段正在进行的动作，常和表示过去的时间状语then，at that time/ moment，yesterday，at nine，last night 等连用或者与when, while, as引导的过去时间状语连用。但在不少情况下，没有表示时间的状语，这时需要通过上下文来表示。

We were watching TV from seven to nine last night.

What was he researching all day last Sunday

二．过去进行时的主要用法是描述一件事发生的背景；一个长动作发生的时候，另一个短动作发生（长动作用过去进行时，短动作用一般过去时）。也可以表示两个动作同时发生，此时均用过去进行时

When I saw him he was cleaning his room.

While he was waiting for the bus, he was reading a newspaper.

He was cleaning his car while I was cooking.

三．When/ While“当……的时候”的区别

①when 既指时间点，也可指段时间，while只指段时间，因此when引导的时间状语从句中的动词可以是短暂性动词，也可以是延续性动词，而while从句中的动词必须是延续性动词。

-

②when 说明从句的动作和主句的动作可以是同时，也可以是先后发生；while 则强调主从句动作同时发生。

They were singing while we were dancing.

③when和while 还可作并列连词。when表示“在那时”；while表示“而，却”，表对照关系。如：

a. The children were playing when they heard the sound of a motor bike.

b. He is strong while his brother is weak.

A. made

B. is making

C. was making

D. makes

2) As she ___ the newspaper, Granny ___ asleep.

四、通常不能用于过去进行时的动词主要有：agree, be, believe, belong, care, forget, hate, have(拥有), hear, know, like, love, mean, mind, notice, own, remember,

seem, suppose, understand, want, wish等。例如：
