过去进行时讲解与练习题

过去进行时（十一、十二课时）

1.概念

过去进行时是表示过去某一时刻或某一时间内正在进行或发生的动作,可以从两个方面来理解：

1 过去某一时刻正在进行或发生的动作。

如：They were playing football at ten o’clock yesterday morning.

My mother was cooking when I got home.

I was washing my clothes at this time yesterday.

2 过去某阶段持续进行的动作。

如：I was staying at home last weekend.

常与过去某一特定的时间状语连用，如 last night, at that time, at 8:00 yesterday, last Sunday 等。也有时没有时间状语，要通过上下文的暗示来确定用过去进行时。E.g. The students all worked hard. Everyone knew what he was working for.

另外，也可用于when/while引导的时间状语从句中。但在复合句中，若主要动作和背景动作是同时发生的，那么主从句都可用过去进行时。

如：It was raining when they left the hospital.

Jenny was reading while Danny was writing.

2.句型结构

⑴肯定句：主语 + was/were + 动词现在分词(doing) + 其他.

如：I was playing basketball at 6:30 yesterday.

He was playing the piano at that moment.

They were doing homework at 8:00 last night

⑵否定句：主语 + was/were + not + 动词现在分词（doing） + 其他

如： I wasn’t playing basketball at 6:30 yesterday.

He wasn’t playing the piano at that moment.

They weren’t doing homework at 8:00 last night.

⑶一般疑问句： Was/Were + 主语 + 动词现在分词(doing) + 其他？

如： Were you playing basketball at 6:30 yestetday?

---Yes, I was./No, I wasn’t.

Was he playing the piano at that moment?

---Yes, he was./No, he wasn’t.

⑷特殊疑问句：特殊疑问词 + 一般疑问句？

如： What were you doing at 8:00pm yesteday?

Where was he working at that time?

注：其句式变化仍然要在be上做文章
