Приветствую, мой дорогой читатель.

Сегодня нас с вами ждет подборка самых интересных и полезных упражнений с ответами, которые помогут вам быстро усвоить правило по теме. Садитесь поудобнее, берите листик с ручной и начинайте практиковаться онлайн прямо сейчас.

Для 5 класса, где иногда начинают изучать данную тему, я советую сделать следующие упражнения.

Упражнение 1.

  1. She (to write) a letter at 6 p.m last evening.
  2. Her father (to go) to the art gallery when he (to meet) her mother.
  3. At 8.20 yesterday morning my mother (to drive) me to the university.
  4. They (to sit) at the café at that time.
  5. She (to study) in the library when they suddenly called.

Упражнение 2.

Вставьте правильную форму глагола.

  1. We had a family evening yesterday. My grandfather and my father (to play) chess, while my grandmother (to knit). My mother (to clean) while I and my brother (to read).
  2. I (to walk) on the street, when I (to see) a man fell. I called the emergency and (to wait) for help. I (to sit) near the man, when the medicals arrived.
  3. Tony and Ann (to ride) through the forest. The sun (to shine) bright and the birds (to sing) beautifully.

А вот упражнения для 6 класса , где эту тему уже повторяют, а не учат, становятся уже немного сложнее.

The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tenses (Прошедшее продолженное время)

Образование

The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tense образуется при помощи вспомогательного глагола to be в прошедшем времени и причастия настоящего времени смыслового глагола.

Утвердительнаяформа

He/She was working(when the phone rang)

We were working(when the phone rang)

They

Отрицательнаяформа

He/She wasn"t working(when the phone rang)

We weren"t working(when the phone rang)

They

Вопросительная форма и краткие ответы:

Was she (I, he, it) working when the phone rang? – Она работала, когда зазвонил телефон?

Yes, she (I, he, it) was. - Да.

No, she (I, he, it) was not (wasn"t). - Нет.

Were they (you, we) working when the phone rang? – Они работали, когда зазвонил телефон?

No, they (you, we) were not (weren"t). - Нет.

Yes, they (we, you) were. - Да.

Употребление

Как и все продолженные времена, The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tense выражает незаконченное, длительное действие, происходившее в какой-то момент или период (в прошлом). Сравните следующие предложения:

At 10.00 I had a bath. - В 10 я принял ванну.

At 10.00 I was having a bath. - В 10 я принимал ванну.

Первое предложение означает, что действие началось в 10.00, а второе - что действие в 10.00 было в процессе осуществления. На рисунке это может быть представлено следующим образом:

The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tense употребляется для выражения длительного действия, которое началось до определенного момента в прошлом и продолжалось в указанный момент. Этот момент может быть определен:

Точным указанием времени:

What were you doing at 6 o"clock yesterday? - Что ты делал в 6 часов вечера? I was reading. - Я читал.

Другим кратким одновременным действием в прошлом, причем это действие всегда выражается глаголом в Pas tIndefinite (Simple):

I was reading when you came in. - Я читал, когда ты вошла.

Контекстом или ситуацией, т.е. точное указание времени или начало другого действия выражены в предыдущем предложении или ясны из ситуации:

I came to the station. My brother was waiting for me on the platform. – Я приехал настанцию. Мой брат ждал меня на платформе.

The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tense употребляется для выражения действия, которое непрерывно продолжалось в течение указанного отрезка времени с целью придания эмоционального оттенка длительности действия. Обычно в предложениях с таким значением употребляются слова allday (night и др.) long, the whole morning (day, night и т.д.), all the time:

I was reading from 7 till 9 o"clock. – Я читал с 7 до 9 часов.

I was reading all day yesterday. – Я читал вчера весь день.

The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tense употребляется для выражения двух длительных действий, которые происходили одновременно в течение одинакового промежутка времени:

While he was speaking to the teacher I was waiting for him. – Пока он разговаривал с учителем, я ждал его.

Поскольку The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tense передает идею длящегося действия, оно используется для описаний:

This morning was really beautiful. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and everyone in the street was smiling and saying hello to each other. – Утро было действительно прекрасным.Сияло солнце, птицы пели, люди на улице улыбались, приветствуя друг друга.

Перевод

The Past Continuous (Progressive) Tense переводится на русский язык обычно глаголом несовершенного вида в прошедшем времени:

While I was walking in the park it began to rain. - Когда я гулял в парке, пошел дождь.
