过去进行时与一般过去时的区别
1. 动作状态不一样一般过去时：往往表示某一动作已经完成。 过去进行时：表示动作持续性或不知是否完成。 They built a bridge last winter. (已经建成了) They were building a bridge last winter.(可能还未建成)
2. 时间状语不一样一般过去时：In 1999; three years ago; last Monday; yesterday morning (afternoon; evening; night) 等过去进行时：at 8:00 yesterday; at this time yesterday; at this time last night等 I wrote a letter last night.I was writing a letter at ten last night.

1.---Could you tell me where you _____Miss Gao just now
---Certainly. In the principal’s office. They ____ happily at that time.
A. find; are talking B. were finding; were talking C. found; were talking
2.He ______ newspapers when the earthquake happened in Japan.
A. was looking through B. looked through C. had looked through
3.Steve ______ in the living room when his mother came in .
A. was watching B. watches C. is watching
答案：CAA
when和while的异同点
相同点 when和while都可以指一段时间，因此，若主句表示的是一个短暂性的动作，而从句表示的是一个持续性动作时，两者都可用 He fell asleep when/while he was reading. I met him when/while I was taking a walk in the park.
不同点 1. when也可以指某个时间点，表示瞬间动作；而while 只指某个时间段，表示延续性动作 When the teacher came in, we were talking.While we were talking, the teacher came in.
2. 由when引导的时间状语从句，主句用过去进行时，从句应用一般过去时；如果从句和主句的动作同时发生，两句都用过去进行时的时候，多用while引导 It was raining when they left the station.He was cleaning his car while I was cooking.While he was waiting for the bus, he was reading a newspaper.
【注：延续性动词和非延续性动词的区别】
英语中，延续性动作是由延续性动词发出的，瞬间性动作是由非延续性动词发出的。
延续性动词是指该动作可以延续一段时间，而不是瞬间结束，如work（工作）、study（学习）、eat（吃）、watch（观看）；
非延续性动词是指该动作极为短暂，瞬间便会结束，如start（开始）、begin（开始）、hit（撞）、jump（跳）。

1) My wallet dropped on the ground ________ I was walking.
2)________ he was reading, the telephone rang.
3)________ the telephone rang, I was doing my homework.

1. 动作状态不一样一般过去时：往往表示某一动作已经完成。 过去进行时：表示动作持续性或不知是否完成。 They built a bridge last winter. (已经建成了) They were building a bridge last winter.(可能还未建成)
2. 时间状语不一样一般过去时：In 1999; three years ago; last Monday; yesterday morning (afternoon; evening; night) 等过去进行时：at 8:00 yesterday; at this time yesterday; at this time last night等 I wrote a letter last night.I was writing a letter at ten last night.
3. 适用的动词稍有不同表示过去的状态、感觉及心理活动的静态动词(如be; like; love; hate; know; want; notice等)可用于一般过去时，但通常不用于进行时 I hated it when a man spoke with his mouth full of food.
4. 与always, constantly, forever等连用含义不同一般过去时：表示“过去经常性、习惯性的动作”过去进行时：表示动作的重复，常带有感彩 He always got up at six. 他过去总是六点起床。He was always thinking of his work. 他总是一心想到工作。
例：
1.---Could you tell me where you _____Miss Gao just now
---Certainly. In the principal’s office. They ____ happily at that time.
A. find; are talking B. were finding; were talking C. found; were talking
2.He ______ newspapers when the earthquake happened in Japan.
A. was looking through B. looked through C. had looked through
3.Steve ______ in the living room when his mother came in .
A. was watching B. watches C. is watching
when和while的异同点
相同点 when和while都可以指一段时间，因此，若主句表示的是一个短暂性的动作，而从句表示的是一个持续性动作时，两者都可用 He fell asleep when/while he was reading. I met him when/while I was taking a walk in the park.
不同点 1. when也可以指某个时间点，表示瞬间动作；而while 只指某个时间段，表示延续性动作 When the teacher came in, we were talking.While we were talking, the teacher came in.
2. 由when引导的时间状语从句，主句用过去进行时，从句应用一般过去时；如果从句和主句的动作同时发生，两句都用过去进行时的时候，多用while引导 It was raining when they left the station.He was cleaning his car while I was cooking.While he was waiting for the bus, he was reading a newspaper.
【注：延续性动词和非延续性动词的区别】
英语中，延续性动作是由延续性动词发出的，瞬间性动作是由非延续性动词发出的。
延续性动词是指该动作可以延续一段时间，而不是瞬间结束，如work（工作）、study（学习）、eat（吃）、watch（观看）；
非延续性动词是指该动作极为短暂，瞬间便会结束，如start（开始）、begin（开始）、hit（撞）、jump（跳）。
