Para colocar a frase no past continuous você deve seguir a estrutura: sujeito + verbo to be no Simple Past que condiz com o sujeito + Verbo principal no gerúndio (com –ing no final)  + Complemento. Ou seja:

2. a) Betty was working hard.

b) The dog was playing with the ball.

c) We were living in Dourados now.

d) John was going to New York at the moment.

3. a) I was writing a letter to my friend.

d) Carla was writing a letter.

5. a) I was late.

b) The girls were good students.

c) The exercise was very difficult.

Para a forma negativa, a estrutura segue sendo: sujeito + verbo to be no simple past + not + verbo principal com –ing + complemento

Para a forma interrogativa, a estrutura segue sendo: verbo to be no simple past + sujeito + verbo principal com –ing + complemento. Ou seja:

6. a) I: Were they writing a letter?
