Answer 1

Resposta:

Nesta resposta, "simple past" vai ser marcado como SP, e "past continuous", como PC.

A ordem é:

• SP - sailed;
• SP - died;
• PC - was living;
• SP - worked;
• SP - played;
• PC - was talking;
• PC - were playing;
• PC (SP também funciona, mas não é o que a sua professora quer) - were writing.
