过去进行时
通过上一模块的学习，我们知道过去进行时可以表示过去某一时刻或时段正在进行或持续的动作，句子常和 at… yesterday morning, at that time, a… last night 等时间状语连用。其实，过去进行时还可以和when, while, as引导的过去时间状语从句连用，形成复合句。
e.g. (1) While the lights were changing to red, a car suddenly appeared round the corner.
正当交通信号灯要变成红灯的时候，一辆小轿车突然从拐角处驶出来。
(2) One day, when Henry was working in a restaurant, a snake suddenly appeared.
一天，当亨利正在餐馆里工作时，一条蛇突然钻了出来。
(3) I was trying to pick it up when it bit me again.
我正试图检起它（那条蛇），突然它（蛇）又咬了我一口。
(4) As the doctors were checking him, the pain got worse.
医生给他做检查时，疼痛加剧了。
注：as 从句一般可以翻译成“边……边……” 或“随着……”。
e.g. As my mother sang those old songs, tears ran down her cheeks.
随着我妈妈唱起那些老歌，眼泪顺着她的脸颊流了下来。
The students took notes as they listened.
学生们边听课边做笔记。
1. when所引导的时间状语既可以指时间点，也可指时间段； while 所引导的时间状语只指时间段。因此，在when引导的时间状语从句中，动词可以是终止性动词，也可以是延续性动词；而在while从句中，动词必须是延续性动词。
e.g. They arrived while we were having dinner.
我们吃饭的时候他们到了。
这句话还可以写成: They arrived when we were having dinner.
when 和 while 从句与过去进行时连用的几种情况。
2. 由when引导的时间状语从句，如果主句用过去进行时、从句用一般过去时，则表示一个动作正在进行的时候另一个动作（突然）发生了，强调后动作发生的突然性。
e.g. We were talking when the teacher came in.
我们正在讲话，老师（突然）进来了。
该句也可以用while表达，但与用when表达有细微的区别。
While we were talking, the teacher came in.
我们正在讲话的时候，老师进来了。(只表明老师进来的事实，不强调突然性)
3. 当主句和从句的动作都是延续的或同时发生的，两句都用过去进行时的时候，多用 while 引导。
e.g. They were singing while we were dancing.
他们在唱歌，我们在跳舞。

What sort of person do you think Jack is
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.
