【知识梳理2】Didn't you hear the rain?难道你没有听见下雨(的声音)吗?
该句为否定疑问句。否定疑问句的构成及用法如下:
否定疑问句即否定形式的疑问句,汉语中常译作“难道……不……吗?”。
对否定疑问句的回答,要根据实际情况来回答。
—Isn’t the boy very clever? 这个男孩难道不是很聪明吗?
—Yes, he is. 不,他很聪明。
—No, he isn’t. 是的,他不是很聪明
其中的“Yes,he is.”实为“Yes,he is very clever.”的省略形式;而“No,he isn't.”则为“No,he isn't very clever.”的省略形式,所以其中的“Yes”和“No”与汉语的翻译不一致。但我们不说“No,he is.”或“Yes,he isn't.”,因为不符合英语中的表达习惯。在英语中Yes后习惯上要用肯定式,而No的后面则习惯上要跟否定式。

答案:DC
Grammar
【语法】A过去进行时
【一】、过去进行时结构:was/were + 动词的现在分词
否定句则在was/were后加一个not,疑问句将was/were提前则可。
如:He was reading a book at 5:00pm yesterday.
→He was not reading a book at 5:00 yesterday.
→Was he reading a book at 5:00 yesterday? (Yes, he was./ No, he wasn’t.)
→What was he doing at 5:00 yesterday?
【二】、过去进行时用法:
(1)过去进行时主要表示过去某个时刻(时间点)正在进行的动作,常和过去的状语连用。 如:(just)then 那时,当时;at this/that time 在这/那时;at that moment=then在那时
at 3:00 yesterday afternoon在昨天下午三点;(at)this time yesterday在昨天这个时候
①What were you doing at nine last night? 昨晚九点的时候,你在做什么?
②I was watching TV at home at 3:00 yesterday afternoon.
我昨天下午三点正在家里看电视。
③They were playing football at this time yesterday.昨天这个时候他们在踢足球。
(2)过去进行时也可以表示过去某一段时间内(时间段)正在进行的动作。常与those days,
the whole morning, from 8:00 to 12:00 last night,last night 等时间状语连用。
①From 1983 to 1998 , he was teaching at Yale . 从1983到1998年,他正在耶鲁大学教书。
②They were building a bridge last winter . 去年冬天他们正在造一座桥。
③He was writing a book those days. 那几天他正在写一本书。
(3)根据情境或上下文需要使用过去进行时。
A: I saw you in the library yesterday morning. What were you doing there?
B: I was reading a book on Diaoyu Island.
(4)过去进行时常出现在含有when和while引导的时间状语从句的复合句中.
①I was playing computer games when my father got home.
= When my father got home, I was playing computer games.
② Mother was cooking while I was doing my homework.
= While I was doing my homework, mother was cooking.
★when和while与过去进行时有着密切的关系,他们作从属连词时都有“当…….时候”之意,用法稍有不同:
结论 ※a. when后常跟短动词(瞬间动词),有时也可跟长动词。
while后只能接长动词(延续性动词或be动词)。
※b. 主句和从句两个动作都发生在过去,长动作用过去进行时,短动作用一般过去时,短动作发生在长动作进行的过程当中。
※C. while连接两个长动作,当两个动作一长一短时, while(when)放在长动词的前
面,when放在短动词的前面。
(5)过去进行时和一般过去时的区别。
过去进行时表示过去某时正在进行的动作,而一般过去时则表示一个完成的动作。也就是说用一般过去时,只表示有过这件事;用过去进行时,则强调动作的连续性。
① I wrote a letter this morning. 今天上午我写了一封信。(信写完了)
I was writing a letter this morning. 今天上午我在写一封信。(信不一定写完)
② The children watched TV yesterday evening.
昨天晚上孩子们看了电视。(强调过去发生了这件事)
The children were watching TV yesterday evening.
昨晚孩子们都在看电视。(强调昨晚看电视这一动作的持续性)
【语法】B. when, while, as 用法
▲1.when,while,as 意义 “当……时候”,引导时间状语从句。
① when + 短动词或长动词
② as + 短动词或长动词
③ while + 长动词(be动词也是长动词)
▲2. ①while 连接两个长动作,两个动作同时发生。(主句和从句都是长动词,常用进行时)
Father was watching TV while mother was cooking dinner.
②as 连接两个同时发生的短动词。
Andy came into the room as Millie sat down on the sofa.
③一个长动作和一个短动作,短动作发生在长动作过程之中,也就是说,长动作先发生,短动作后发生。分两种情况:
A.主句是长动作,从句用when+短动作。 I was wathing TV when father got home.
B.主句是短动作,从句用while/as/when+长动作。 Father got home while/as/when I was watching TV.
▲3.as还有一种特殊用法,用于两个平行结构。表示:一个主语同时进行两个动作;一种状态随另一种状态的变化而变化.(意为:①一边做……一边做…… ②随着……)
① He sang as he worked. 他边工作边唱歌。
② As he grew older,he became more confident. 随着年龄的增长他变得更加自信。
▲4.when/while+ doing sth.
