Question

complete the sentences below using the past continuous or the simple past : ​

Answer 1

Resposta: a) The phone was ringing while I was having my bath, as usual.

b) Yesterday, as he was walking down the street, he was an old friend of his.

c) They were talking about art last night.

d) While we were learning English, Matheus was off.

Explicação:

O Present Continuous é composto de:

Sujeito + verbo to be no Simple Past + verbo principal com "-ing" + complemento

Exemplo:

They (sujeito) were (verbo to be no simple past) reading ( verbo principal com -ing) a book (complemento)

(They were reading a book)

--- Uma coisa que não entendi foi a b, já que a parte "he was an old friend of his" não faz sentido nesse contexto. ---
