用法：
1. 过去进行时的基本用法主要表示过去某一时间正在进行的动作。 如：

他看书时睡着了。
2. 过去进行时表示现在主要是为了使语气委婉、客气。 如：
I was wondering if you could give me a lift.
我不知你能否让我搭一下车
【注】一般过去时也有类似用法，但比较而言，用过去进行时显得更客气，更不肯定。能否让我搭一下车。
3. 过去进行时表示感彩与现在进行时相似，过去进行时也可表示满意、称赞、惊讶、厌恶等感彩，也通常与 always, forever, continually等副词连用。 如：
They were always quarrelling.
他们老是吵架。
4. 动词be的过去进行时也可表示过去一时的表现或暂时的状态。
比较：
He was friendly.
他很友好。 (指过去长期如此)
He was being friendly.
他当时显得很友好。(指当时一时的表现)
典型例子
1) Mary ___ a dress when she cut her finger.
A. made B. is making
C. was making D. makes
答案 C. 割伤手指是已发生的事情，应用过去时。同 时，when表时间的同时性， “玛丽在做衣服时”提供事情发生的背景，因此用过去进行时。
2) As she ___ the newspaper, Granny ___ asleep. A. read; was falling
B. was reading; fell
C. was reading; was falling
D. read; fell
答案B.句中的as = when, while，意为“当……
之时”。描述一件事发生的背景时，用过去进行；
一个长动作发生的时候，另一个短动作发生。句
意为 “在她看报纸时，奶奶睡着了。 ”句中的
fell (fall的过去时)，是系动词，后跟形容词，
如：fall sick。

Careless Jack
My friend Jack was always having accidents. He did not pay attention to where he was going or what he was doing.
A few months ago, a car hit him while he was on his way home from school. The driver was a bit tired, so he did not see Jack. And Jack was talking on his mobile phone and was riding in the middle of the road. The car hit him. He broke his leg and was in hospital for over a month.
Last week, he fell down a hole in the park. As usual, he was not looking where he was going. Some kind-hearted people in the park helped him climb out of the hole and then took him to hospital because he was in a lot of pain. Luckily, he did not break an arm or a leg. At the hospital, the doctors gave him some medicine and then he went home.
I always told him to be careful, but he did not listen to me. After the two accidents, he promised to take my advice. Now he is very careful.
