过去进行时
用法分类
核心含义
结构公式
典型例句
注意事项
1. 过去特定时间正在进行的动作
强调在过去某个明确时间点(如 “昨天 8 点”“那时”)正在发生的动作,动作具有 “持续性”。
主语 + was/were + doing
I was watching TV at 8 p.m. yesterday.(昨天晚上 8 点我正在看电视。)
They were playing basketball when I passed the playground.(我经过操场时,他们正在打篮球。)
需搭配 “过去特定时间点”(如 at 8 p.m. yesterday)或 “时间状语从句”(when/while 引导),明确动作发生的 “时间背景”。
2. 过去时间段内持续的动作
表示在过去某一整段时间(如 “上周”“去年夏天”)中,持续进行的动作(不一定贯穿全程,但有持续属性)。
主语 + was/were + doing
She was learning to play the piano last month.(上个月她在学弹钢琴。)
We were living in Beijing during 2020.(2020 年期间我们住在北京。)
时间状语多为 “时间段”(如 last month, during 2019),区别于 “一般过去时”(表动作已完成,无持续强调)。例如:“She learned piano last month” 仅表 “学了”,而过去进行时表 “那段时间在持续学”。
3. 过去两个同时进行的动作
描述过去两个动作同时发生、持续进行,常用 while 连接,或用 and 并列。
主语 1 + was/were + doing, while 主语 2 + was/were + doing
My mom was cooking in the kitchen, while my dad was reading a newspaper in the living room.(妈妈在厨房做饭,爸爸在客厅看报纸。)
They were singing and dancing at the party last night.(昨晚聚会上他们一边唱歌一边跳舞。)
若两个动作持续时间一致,while 连接更自然;若动作有 “主从关系”(一个长动作中穿插短动作),短动作常用一般过去时,长动作用过去进行时(如:I was walking home when it rained.)。
4. 过去 “背景动作” 与 “突发动作” 结合
用 “过去进行时” 表持续的背景动作,用 “一般过去时” 表突然发生的短动作,两者形成 “背景 + 事件” 的逻辑,常用 when 连接。
主语 1 + was/were + doing, when 主语 2 + did
He was riding his bike to school when he fell off.(他正骑自行车去学校,突然摔了下来。)
I was talking on the phone when the doorbell rang.(我正在打电话,门铃突然响了。)
关键区分:过去进行时(长动作,背景)+ when + 一般过去时(短动作,突发),不可混淆时态;若用 while 连接,需调整句式(如:While he was riding his bike, he fell off.)。
5. 表达过去 “不满 / 抱怨” 的情绪
用于口语中,强调过去反复发生、令人厌烦的动作,常搭配 always, constantly, forever 等词。
主语 + was/were + always doing
He was always interrupting me when I spoke.(我说话的时候,他总是插嘴。)
My little sister was constantly asking me for toys last week.(上周我妹妹总是跟我要玩具。)
此用法带有主观情绪(不满、烦躁),区别于 “一般过去时 + always”(仅客观陈述反复动作,如:He always helped me.)。
英语过去进行时(Past Continuous Tense)的核心结构是“主语 + was/were + 动词现在分词(doing)”,主要用于描述过去特定场景下的“持续动作”或“背景状态”。
知识点01 描述“过去特定时间点”正在进行的动作
强调动作在过去某个明确的时间点(如“昨天8点”“那时”) 正处于“进行中”,而非已完成。
时间标志:常搭配具体时间(at 8 p.m. yesterday / this time last week)或提示“当时”的语境(then / at that moment)。
例句:
She was reading a novel at 9 o’clock last night.(昨晚9点,她正在看小说。)
I called him, but he wasn’t answering—he must have been busy.(我给他打电话了,但他没接——他当时肯定在忙。)
知识点02 描述“过去某段时间内”持续的动作
动作在过去一个时间段(如“上周”“2023年夏天”) 中持续进行,不强调“是否贯穿全程”,但突出“持续属性”,区别于“一般过去时”(仅表动作已完成)。
时间标志:常搭配时间段(last month / during my trip / in 2022)。
例句:
They were building a new park in our neighborhood last year.(去年,我们小区附近一直在建一个新公园。)
I was learning Spanish while I lived in Madrid.(我住在马德里的时候,一直在学西班牙语。)
知识点03 表达“过去两个同时进行的动作”
用于描述两个动作在过去同一时间段内同时持续发生,常用 `while` 连接(强调“同时性”),或用 `and` 并列。
逻辑特点:两个动作均为“持续动作”,持续时间大致一致。
例句:
My dad was washing the car, while my mom was preparing dinner.(爸爸在洗车,妈妈在准备晚饭。)
We were singing and dancing at the birthday party all night.(我们在生日派对上整晚都在唱歌、跳舞。)
知识点04 铺垫“背景动作”,引出“突发的短动作”
这是过去进行时的高频用法:用过去进行时表“持续的背景动作”,用一般过去时表“突然发生的短动作”,两者形成“背景+事件”的逻辑,常用 `when` 连接(`when` 后接短动作)。
逻辑区分:长动作(背景,用过去进行时)→ 短动作(突发,用一般过去时)。
例句:
He was riding his bike to work when he fell down (突然摔倒).(他正骑自行车上班,突然摔了下来。)
I was watching TV when the power went out (突然断电).(我正在看电视,突然停电了。)
知识点05 表达“过去反复发生的不满/抱怨”
口语中常用此用法,搭配 `always / constantly / forever` 等词,强调“过去反复出现、让人烦躁的动作”,带有主观情绪(不满、无奈),区别于“一般过去时+always”(仅客观陈述反复动作)。
例句:
My roommate was always leaving dirty dishes in the sink—It drove me crazy!(我室友以前总把脏盘子留在水槽里,真让我抓狂!)
He was constantly late for meetings last month, which made the boss angry.(上个月他开会总迟到,把老板惹火了。)
解|题|技|巧
主谓一致:主语是单数(I/he/she/it)时用 `was`,复数(you/we/they)时用 `were`;
不表“完成”:过去进行时仅强调“动作在过去某时的进行状态”,不能用于描述“已完成的结果”(如“我昨天看了电影”需用一般过去时:I watched a movie yesterday,而非 I was watching...);
与 `when/while` 搭配:`when` 可接“短动作(一般过去时)”或“长动作(过去进行时)”,`while` 更侧重接“长动作(过去进行时)”,表“同时性”。

过去进行时
单项选择
语法选择
语法填空等
1.注重素养:更加注重对学生英语核心素养的考查。
2.情境化突出:借助生活、学校、社会等多种情境,将语法考察与实际生活相结合。
3.文化传承与价值导向明显:注重选取具有文化内涵和思想价值的语篇。
过去进行时
用法分类
核心含义
结构公式
典型例句
注意事项
1. 过去特定时间正在进行的动作
强调在过去某个明确时间点(如 “昨天 8 点”“那时”)正在发生的动作,动作具有 “持续性”。
主语 + was/were + doing
I was watching TV at 8 p.m. yesterday.(昨天晚上 8 点我正在看电视。)
They were playing basketball when I passed the playground.(我经过操场时,他们正在打篮球。)
需搭配 “过去特定时间点”(如 at 8 p.m. yesterday)或 “时间状语从句”(when/while 引导),明确动作发生的 “时间背景”。
2. 过去时间段内持续的动作
表示在过去某一整段时间(如 “上周”“去年夏天”)中,持续进行的动作(不一定贯穿全程,但有持续属性)。
主语 + was/were + doing
She was learning to play the piano last month.(上个月她在学弹钢琴。)
We were living in Beijing during 2020.(2020 年期间我们住在北京。)
时间状语多为 “时间段”(如 last month, during 2019),区别于 “一般过去时”(表动作已完成,无持续强调)。例如:“She learned piano last month” 仅表 “学了”,而过去进行时表 “那段时间在持续学”。
3. 过去两个同时进行的动作
描述过去两个动作同时发生、持续进行,常用 while 连接,或用 and 并列。
主语 1 + was/were + doing, while 主语 2 + was/were + doing
My mom was cooking in the kitchen, while my dad was reading a newspaper in the living room.(妈妈在厨房做饭,爸爸在客厅看报纸。)
They were singing and dancing at the party last night.(昨晚聚会上他们一边唱歌一边跳舞。)
若两个动作持续时间一致,while 连接更自然;若动作有 “主从关系”(一个长动作中穿插短动作),短动作常用一般过去时,长动作用过去进行时(如:I was walking home when it rained.)。
4. 过去 “背景动作” 与 “突发动作” 结合
用 “过去进行时” 表持续的背景动作,用 “一般过去时” 表突然发生的短动作,两者形成 “背景 + 事件” 的逻辑,常用 when 连接。
主语 1 + was/were + doing, when 主语 2 + did
He was riding his bike to school when he fell off.(他正骑自行车去学校,突然摔了下来。)
I was talking on the phone when the doorbell rang.(我正在打电话,门铃突然响了。)
关键区分:过去进行时(长动作,背景)+ when + 一般过去时(短动作,突发),不可混淆时态;若用 while 连接,需调整句式(如:While he was riding his bike, he fell off.)。
5. 表达过去 “不满 / 抱怨” 的情绪
用于口语中,强调过去反复发生、令人厌烦的动作,常搭配 always, constantly, forever 等词。
主语 + was/were + always doing
He was always interrupting me when I spoke.(我说话的时候,他总是插嘴。)
My little sister was constantly asking me for toys last week.(上周我妹妹总是跟我要玩具。)
此用法带有主观情绪(不满、烦躁),区别于 “一般过去时 + always”(仅客观陈述反复动作,如:He always helped me.)。
英语过去进行时(Past Continuous Tense)的核心结构是“主语 + was/were + 动词现在分词(doing)”,主要用于描述过去特定场景下的“持续动作”或“背景状态”。
知识点01 描述“过去特定时间点”正在进行的动作
强调动作在过去某个明确的时间点(如“昨天8点”“那时”) 正处于“进行中”,而非已完成。
时间标志:常搭配具体时间(at 8 p.m. yesterday / this time last week)或提示“当时”的语境(then / at that moment)。
例句:
She was reading a novel at 9 o’clock last night.(昨晚9点,她正在看小说。)
I called him, but he wasn’t answering—he must have been busy.(我给他打电话了,但他没接——他当时肯定在忙。)
知识点02 描述“过去某段时间内”持续的动作
动作在过去一个时间段(如“上周”“2023年夏天”) 中持续进行,不强调“是否贯穿全程”,但突出“持续属性”,区别于“一般过去时”(仅表动作已完成)。
时间标志:常搭配时间段(last month / during my trip / in 2022)。
例句:
They were building a new park in our neighborhood last year.(去年,我们小区附近一直在建一个新公园。)
I was learning Spanish while I lived in Madrid.(我住在马德里的时候,一直在学西班牙语。)
知识点03 表达“过去两个同时进行的动作”
用于描述两个动作在过去同一时间段内同时持续发生,常用 `while` 连接(强调“同时性”),或用 `and` 并列。
逻辑特点:两个动作均为“持续动作”,持续时间大致一致。
例句:
My dad was washing the car, while my mom was preparing dinner.(爸爸在洗车,妈妈在准备晚饭。)
We were singing and dancing at the birthday party all night.(我们在生日派对上整晚都在唱歌、跳舞。)
知识点04 铺垫“背景动作”,引出“突发的短动作”
这是过去进行时的高频用法:用过去进行时表“持续的背景动作”,用一般过去时表“突然发生的短动作”,两者形成“背景+事件”的逻辑,常用 `when` 连接(`when` 后接短动作)。
逻辑区分:长动作(背景,用过去进行时)→ 短动作(突发,用一般过去时)。
例句:
He was riding his bike to work when he fell down (突然摔倒).(他正骑自行车上班,突然摔了下来。)
I was watching TV when the power went out (突然断电).(我正在看电视,突然停电了。)
知识点05 表达“过去反复发生的不满/抱怨”
口语中常用此用法,搭配 `always / constantly / forever` 等词,强调“过去反复出现、让人烦躁的动作”,带有主观情绪(不满、无奈),区别于“一般过去时+always”(仅客观陈述反复动作)。
例句:
My roommate was always leaving dirty dishes in the sink—It drove me crazy!(我室友以前总把脏盘子留在水槽里,真让我抓狂!)
He was constantly late for meetings last month, which made the boss angry.(上个月他开会总迟到,把老板惹火了。)
解|题|技|巧
主谓一致:主语是单数(I/he/she/it)时用 `was`,复数(you/we/they)时用 `were`;
不表“完成”:过去进行时仅强调“动作在过去某时的进行状态”,不能用于描述“已完成的结果”(如“我昨天看了电影”需用一般过去时:I watched a movie yesterday,而非 I was watching...);
与 `when/while` 搭配:`when` 可接“短动作(一般过去时)”或“长动作(过去进行时)”,`while` 更侧重接“长动作(过去进行时)”,表“同时性”。

17. was practicing/practising telling stories
【解析】由语境可知,此题考查while引导的时间状语从句,时态是过去进行时,结构为:主语+ was/were +现在分词,从句的主语是I,be动词用was;practice/practise doing sth.表示“练习做某事”,即practice/practise telling stories表示“练习讲故事”。故填was;practicing/practising;telling ;stories。
18. using the computer
【解析】分析句子可知此句是过去进行时,根据中英文对照,缺的是短语“use the computer”。根据前半句为主句,空前为was可知,此处填using the computer。故答案为:using;the;computer。
19. what they were talking
【解析】分析句子成分可知,设空处内容为宾语从句,应使用陈述句语序;根据“a moment ago”及中文对照语境可知,此句要用过去进行时“was/were+doing”表示过去正在发生的动作。what“什么”,因主语they“他们”为复数,所以谓语结构用were talking“谈论”。故填what;they;were;talking。
20. staring at who/that stole
【解析】根据中文意思可知本题考查动词短语stare at“盯着”,动词steal“偷”及定语从句,根据“were”可知句子时态为过去进行时,其结构为“was/were+doing”,由“the thief”可知其后为定语从句,而“thief”为“人”,关系词应用who/that,根据“just now”可知定语从句的时态为一般过去时,故填staring;at;who/that;stole。
21. agreed with
【解析】根据中英文对照可知,空处应填“同意”的英文翻译。agree with sb意为“同意某人”,由“yesterday”可知此处为一般过去时,故填agreed;with。
22. she was doing
【解析】根据提示可知需要翻译“她正在做”。said后是宾语从句,且符合“主过从必过”的时态规则,由“at that time”可知,从句是过去进行时,即was/were+现在分词,主语“她”she,be动词用was,“做作业”do her homework,故do用现在分词形式doing。故填she;was;doing。
23. was making his way
【解析】“艰难地赶往某地”make one’s way to sp.,此处用his代替one’s。根据“when the rainstorm began the day before yesterday”可知用过去进行时,Li Lei后接be动词was。故填was;making;his;way。
24. was cooking
【解析】根据句意和题干可知,此处应天“正在做晚餐”。cook dinner“做晚餐”。此句是含有when的过去进行时,主语是Tina,be动词用was。故填was;cooking。
25. were peeking up
【解析】peek up through“通过⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅探出来”,动作发生在过去,强调正在发生,用过去进行时,主语是复数。故填were;peeking;up。

参考答案
1.B
【解析】句意:——昨天这个时候你在做什么? ——我在家吃午饭。
选项A是现在进行时;选项B是过去进行时;选项C是一般现在时;选项D是一般过去时。由问句What were you doing this time yesterday?的时态是过去进行时,可以得知下文的答语也应该用过去进行时。故选B。
2.C
【解析】句意:提姆正在努力学习英语,以至于他没有注意到他妈妈走进了房间。
考查动词时态辨析。study学习,studies是其三单形式,will study是一般将来时结构,was studying是过去进行时结构,has studied是现在完成时结构。根据句意语境,可知“妈妈走进房间时提姆正在学习英语”,需用过去进行时,故选C。
3.D
【解析】句意:—— 我上星期五在聚会上没见到你。但你说你会来的!——我真的很抱歉。那时我正在带一些客人参观我们的公司。
考查时态,showed展示,(过去式,常用于一般过去时)am showing现在进行时结构; will show一般将来时结构was showing过去进行时结构。判断句意此处指的是过去的某个时候(last Friday)正在发生的事情,应用过去进行时,故选D。
【点睛】过去进行时,是表示过去某个具体时刻正在进行的事情或动作。
其结构是was/were +doing (现在分词)。常用的时间状语this morning, the whole morning, all day yesterday, from nine to ten last evening, when, while。
4.C
【解析】句意:当我正做一些家务时,可怕的地震就开始了。
考查时态和主谓一致。A. am doing现在正在做;B. are doing现在正在做;C. was doing过去正在做;D. were doing过去正在做,根据The terrible earthquake started“可怕的地震就开始了”可知,地震发生在过去一个瞬间时刻,而在这个时刻“我正做一些家务”,所以用过去进行时was/were doing,主语I,助动词用was,故选C。
5.A
【解析】句意:昨天妈妈正在做家务的时候我阿姨来了。
考查动词时态。时间状语是yesterday,且come是短暂性动词,没有进行时,所以主句是一般过去时,从句是过去进行时。故选A。
6.D
【解析】句意:当他幻想中彩票时,英语老师让他回答一个问题。
根据句意理解可知,这里表示幻想做某事时,英语中是一个固定短语,结构是daydream about doing sth,根据结构可知,本题应该用过去进行时,表达这个动作正在进行,所以选择D答案。
7.B
【解析】句意:——你注意到那个正在椅子上睡觉的人了吗?——我没有。我在想别的事情。
考查动词时态辨析。something(某物)等不定代词有else(别的)修饰做定语时,else需后置于不定代词后面,可排除CD两项。think about考虑/思考;根据问句Did you notice the man sleeping in the chair? 你注意到那个正在椅子上睡觉的人了吗,结合否定回答No. I didn't.可知,那人在椅子上睡觉时“我正在想别的事情”,需用过去进行时“was doing”结构,故选B。
8.A
【解析】句意:当闹钟响的时候,我正在复习功课为即将到来的考试做准备。
考查动词时态辨析。本句是时间状语从句,从句动词rang是过去式,是瞬间动词,主句是说当铃响的瞬间我正在复习为即将到来的考试做准备,需用过去进行时“was doing”结构。根据句意结构和语境,可知选A。
9.B
【解析】句意:珍妮在办公室打字时,杰西卡正在网上看比赛。
考查while引导的时间状语从句的时态。根据句子结构,本句是while引导的时间状语从句,从句中的动词必须是延续性动词,强调主从句两个动作同时发生。主句为过去进行时,则从句也应用过去进行时,故应选B。
【点睛】while引导时间状语从句的用法:
while引导时间状语从句时,从句的侧重点在于描述动作正在发生的状态,所以while引导的时间状语从句一般用的时态是进行时,而主句的时态没有硬性的要求,根据具体情况而定。例如:
While my mother was cooking, I was sweeping the floor.
我妈妈在煮饭时,我在扫地。
While the discussion was still going on, George came in.
当讨论还在进行时,乔治走了进来。
10.D
【解析】句意:当昨天下午开始下雨时,我们正在操场上跑步。
考查时态。A. run跑,一般现在时;B. ran跑,一般过去时;C. are running跑,现在进行时;D. were running跑,过去进行时。根据时间状语when it began to rain yesterday afternoon,可知动作发生在过去的某个时刻,主句动词应该用过去进行时,故选D。
11.B
【解析】句意:当开始下雨的时候,那些农民们正在田地里工作。
这里是when引导的时间状语从句,这句是过去进行时,从句用一般过去时态。排除AD;第一空用过去进行时,其结构是was/were doing的形式。第二空是一般过去时态,begin的过去式是began。根据题意,故选B。
12.B
【解析】句意:你能告诉我他刚才说什么吗?对不起,我正考虑明天我要做什么。
考查时态。A. will think(一般将来时);B. was thinking(过去进行时);C. thought (一般过去式);D. think(一般现在时);根据句意,“考虑”这个动作发生刚才在他讲话的时候,在过去某个时间点发生的动作用过去进行时,故选B。
13.D
【解析】句意:——亚历克斯,昨晚九点你为什么不接我的电话?——对不起。我把手机落在家里了。我和我的朋友在公园里打篮球。
考查动词和时态辨析。forgot是forget的过去式,表示忘记,主要强调忘记某事或忘记做某事;left是leave的过去式,主要强调把某物落在某个地方。本题的第一个空强调手机落在家里,所以用left。由题中的at nine确定第二个空是过去进行时,表示在那时(9点的时候)我正在打篮球。根据句意结构和语境,故选D。
14.B
【解析】句意:当我到他们家时,怀特一家人正在看电视。
时间状语从句when I came to their home表示的是过去的某一时间点,在那一时刻发生的动作要用过去进行时态来表达。构成为were/was+ doing;主语The Whites表示怀特夫妇或怀特一家人,助动词用were,故答案为B。
【点睛】过去进行时的用法小结:
定义:表示过去某个时刻或某一阶段正在进行的动作。 构成:was/ were + 动词-ing构成。
1. 表示在过去某一时刻或某一阶段正在发生的动作。如:I was having a shower at that time. 那时我正冲澡。
2. 表示某个短暂性动作发生的背景。如:I was reading the newspaper when the doorbell rang. 我正在看报,突然门铃响了。
3. 过去进行时在语境中的运用。如:I waved to her but she wasn't looking. 我向她挥手但她没往这边瞧。She didn't hear the doorbell. She was listening to the radio. 她没听见门铃响,她在听收音机。
注:与 always, forever等副词连用,可表示某种感情的色彩。如:
She was forever complaining. 她老是抱怨。(厌烦) She was always thinking of others. 她老是想到别人。(赞扬)
15.D
【解析】句意:— — 我昨晚11点看到你的灯还亮着。 — — 哦,那时我正在看一个有趣的脱口秀。
A为一般现在时;B为一般过去时;C为现在进行时;D为过去进行时。根据last night和at that time可知,是指昨天晚上的那个时候,指过去正在发生的动作。因此本题的时态为过去进行时。其结构是:was/were+动词的现在分词。故选D。
16.A
【解析】句意:— —吉姆,你能回答这个问题吗? — —对不起,我没在听。你能再说一遍吗?A为过去进行时;B为一般现在时;C为现在进行时;D为一般将来时。根据Sorry 和Could you say it again? 对不起!和你能再说一遍吗?说明Jim刚才是没有在听,因此应该用过去进行时,符合语境。故选A。
17.C
【解析】句意:当灯变红时,一辆汽车突然出现在拐角处。A为一般现在时;B为现在完成时;C为过去进行时;D为一般将来时。根据a car suddenly appeared round the corner. 一辆汽车突然出现在拐角处。该句为一般过去时,因此在由while引导的从句中,也要用过去范畴的某一种时态,故排除A/D;选项B为现在完成时,现在完成时表示:过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响或结果。本题不符合这一概念的要求。因此不是现在完成时。故排除。本题的语境是:一辆汽车突然出现在拐角处的时候,灯正在变红。因此用过去进行时。故选C。
18.C
【解析】句意:阿蒙驾船在暴风雨中航行时,一条大鱼从海里游了出来。
考查动词时态辨析。本句是when引导的时间状语从句,时态遵循主过从过;根据when a giant fish came out of the sea.可知遇到大雨时阿蒙正在航行,主句需用过去进行时,故选C。
19.C
【解析】句意:当我爸爸在看足球比赛的时候,我在为一个测验学习。Watch看,study学习。While加动词时,需要加持续性动词,所以watch用进行时表示持续;当父亲看电视的时候,我那个时候在为测验复习,过去某时间段在做某事,用过去进行时,故选C。
20.A
【解析】句意:——为什么你如此累?——因为我们整个下午都在操场上踢足球。A. were playing过去进行时;B. will play 将会;一般将来时;C. play玩;原形;D. played玩,一般过去时态。根据上文Why are you so tired?可知下文用过去进行时,其结构是was/were doing的形式。根据题意,故选A。
21.C
【解析】句意:她的表姐正在读报纸,而Judy正在看电视。is reading现在进行时,正在读;reads第三人称单数;was reading过去进行时;read阅读,动词原形或过去式。根据句中while Judy was watching TV可知,这里表示过去某个时候正在发生的两个动作,故用过去进行时,选C。
22.D
【解析】句意:当我路过时,学生们正在愉快地谈论艺术展。
A为一般现在时;B一般过去时; C现在进行时;D过去进行时。句子when I passed by.是一般过去时,因此主语是指学生们正在愉快地谈论艺术展。所以主句用过去进行时。结构是:was/were+动词的现在分词。主语The students是复数,因此be动词用were。故选D。
23.C
【解析】句意:当我母亲下班回家时,我父亲正在厨房做饭。考查过去进行时态。语境“当我母亲回到家时,我父亲正在厨房做饭。”when引导的时间状语从句,一个动作发生时,另一个动作正在进行,由came过去式,可知,用过去进行时态,结构是was/were+动词的现在分词。故答案是C。
24.B
【解析】句意:——你额头(额)怎么了? ——我在遛狗的时候撞到了树上。考查过去进行时。根据I knocked my head on the tree,和while,可知句子是过去进行时,结构为be+动词的现在分词,主语是I。即当我遛狗的时候,我的头撞到了树上。故选B。
25.C
【解析】句意“今天下午当他们正在上物理课时,教室停电了”。A.现在进行时;B.一般将来时;C.过去进行时;D.现在完成时。根据had可知,用过去时,且根据句意可知,表示“他们正在上物理课”,故选C。
26.C
【解析】句意:昨天晚上我妈妈回家时,我正在做家庭作业。本题考查过去进行时。根据题干可知是when引导的时间状语从句,表示在过去当一个动作发生的时候,另一个动作正在进行,故本题考查过去进行时。选项A为一般现在时;选项B为一般将来时;选项C为过去进行时;选项D为现在完成时。故正确答案为选项C。
27.D
【解析】句意:拉里,我们很高兴你来了。我们正要开车去车站接你。考查动词时态辨析。根据句意语境,可知我们刚刚要开始出发去车站,需用过去进行时表示过去的打算,故选D。
28.C

29.B
【解析】本题考查:语境分析及过去进行时。搭车的事发生在过去,所以“我开车要经过你的家门口”也发生在过去,因此可排除C和D。,A是过去完成时,表示过去的过去。不符合语境。空格处选was coming最合题意。其中,give a lift让……搭车。完整句意为:一It was really kind of you to give me a lift home.一Oh, don't mention it. I was coming past your house anyway.一真的很高兴你能搭载我回家。一哦,没关系,反正我正要经过你家。正确答案为:B
30.B
【解析】本题考查:过去进行时用法。选项分析:A. did一般过去时。在过去某个特定时间发生,也可以表示过去习惯性、经常性的动作。一般不强调动作的影响,只说明的事情。一般过去时常与表示过去的时间状语或从句连用。例句:He was dead in 1990.他死于1990年。 B. was doing过去进行时。表示过去某个具体时刻正在进行的事情或动作,结构:was/were +doing (现在分词) 。 C. has done 现在完成时。表示过去的动作或状态持续到现在并且已经完成,对现在造成的影响,可能持续发生下去。D. had done过去完成时。表示过去某一时间或动作以前已经发生或完成了的动作,对过去的某一点造成的某种影响或是结果,用来指在另一个过去行动之前就已经完成了的事件。它表示动作发生的时间是“过去的过去”,侧重事情的结果。题中,do my homework做我的作业。依据at eight last night昨晚八点,已经指出了具体的时间了,表示在过去的某时刻在做什么,故用过去进行时。综合分析前后句, 可知此处填was doing最合适,完整句意为:Paul, what were you doing at eight last night? I was doing my homework at home.保罗,昨晚八点你在干什么?那时候我正在家里做作业。正确答案为:B
