We/You/They/ were working. 否定式:I/He/She/It was not working.We/You/They/ were not working. 疑问式和简略回答:Was I working? Yes, you were. No, you were not.Were you working? Yes, I was. No, I was not.Was he/she/it working? Yes, he/she/it was. No, he/she/it was not.Were we/you/they working? Yes, you/we/they were. No, you/we/they were not.1) was not常缩略为wasnt; were not常缩略为werent。2) 一般过去时与过去进行时用法的比较: 一般过去时表示在过去某个时间发生过的动作或存在的状态, 而过去进行时则表示在过去某一时刻或某一段时间正在进行的动作。David wrote a letter to his friend last night. 大卫昨晚给他的朋友写了封信。(信写完了。)David was writing a letter to his friend last night. 大卫昨晚一直在给他的朋友写信。(信不一定写完。)Practice: Look at the picture and make up the dialogues.Step 4 过去进行时中的when和whilewhen和while都可表示“当的时候”，引导时间状语从句。你知道两者在过去进行时中的用法有什么不同吗？请仔细观察下面的例句，然后补全空格中的内容。 I was walking to school when I saw a cat in a tree. When Sally arrived home, her mother was cleaning the house. 主句的动作是持续性的，而从句动作是短暂性的，此时用_引导时间状语从句，主句用_时态，从句用一般过去时态。 While I was sleeping in the bedroom, someone knocked at the door. David fell while he was riding his bike. 主句的动作是短暂性的，从句的动作是持续性的，此时用_引导从句，主句_时态，从句用过去进行时态。 While Andy was waiting for the bus, he was reading a newspaper. He was cleaning his car while I was cooking. 主句和从句的动作在过去的某时刻或某段时间同时发生，而且动作都是持续性的，此时用_引导从句，而且主句和从句都用_时态。Practice: 汉译英。Step 5 Work on 4a.
