【详解】句意:——我昨天晚上给你打电话了,但是没人接。——哦,那时我正在洗淋浴。
“take a shower”是动词短语,意为“淋浴”。根据时间状语“yesterday evening”和“at that time”可知,此处表示过去某一具体时刻正在进行的动作,应用过去进行时,结构为“was/were+doing”。主语是I,be动词用was,应填was taking。
(2) At 8:00 last night, I ________ a documentary about China’s space missions on TV.
A.watched B.am watching C.was watching D.watch
【答案】C

考查过去进行时。根据问句“What were you doing at 7 last night?”可知,询问的是过去某个具体时间正在发生的动作,且答句中“while my mom was cooking dinner”表示两个动作同时发生,强调过去某一时刻正在进行的动作,需用过去进行时。故选C。
(5) During the storm, the wind was ________ strongly.
A.blowing B.blow C.blows D.blew
【答案】A
【详解】句意:暴风雨期间,风猛烈地刮着。
考查时态。根据“During the storm”可知,动作在过去持续进行,应用过去进行时(was/were + doing)。主语the wind是单数,be动词用was。故选A。
2. 过去进行时的构成与句型变换
(1) 过去进行时的构成
过去进行时由“was/were+动词-ing”构成。was/were的选择取决于主语的人称和数。
I was reading a book at that time. 那个时候我正在读书。

单项填空
(1) I was walking home at that time.(改为一般疑问句并作肯定回答)
—________ you ________ home at that time?
—________, I ________.
【答案】 Were walking Yes was
【详解】句意:那时我正走在回家的路上。原句为过去进行时,改为一般疑问句时,需将be动词提前至句首;主语I改为you,be动词也由was变为were,现在分词walking保持不变。作肯定回答时,使用结构“Yes, 主语+was/were”,回答时主语为I,对应be动词用was。

________ they ________ a party when you arrived?
【答案】 Were having

(4) I was having a very nice dream when the alarm clock went off. (对划线部分提问)
What ________ you ________ when the alarm clock went off?

(5) She was doing some reading when the teacher came in.(改为一般问句及回答)
_________ she _________ _________ reading when the teacher came in?
No, she _________ .
【答案】 Was doing any wasn’t
【详解】句意:老师进来时,她正在看书。观察句子中有be动词,可知变一般疑问句,则把be动词was提前放句首即可,同时some变为any。这里是作否定回答,即No,she wasn’t。故填Was,doing,any,wasn’t。
3. 过去进行时用于when、while从句
(1) 过去进行时既可以用在主句中,也可以用在从句中。还可以同时用于主句和从句中。
持续时间长的动作一般用过去进行时,持续时间短的动作一般用一般过去时。

My father was cooking while my mother was washing dishes.爸爸在做饭,妈妈在洗碗。
(2) when与while引导从句的区别

He was sleeping when I knocked at the door.我敲门的时候,他正在睡觉。
The boy started to cry when/while they were waiting at the shop. 他们在商店等候的时候,那个男孩突然哭了起来。
· 当主句表示短暂性动作,从句表示延续性动作时,when和while可以互换使用。
When/While he was walking along the street, he came across an old friend.当他沿着街道走的时候,他遇见了一个老朋友。
· 当主句和从句都表示延续性动作时,常用while引导从句。

[随学随练]
单项填空
(1) The boy ________ the mountains when he saw a huge eagle.
A.climbs B.climbed C.was climbing D.is climbing
【答案】C
【详解】句意:当那个男孩看见一只巨大的鹰时,他正在爬山。
when引导的时间状语从句使用了一般过去时,表示过去某个时刻正在进行的动作被另一个动作打断,爬山是过去那一刻正在进行的延续性动作,因此要用过去进行时was climbing。
(2) While my mother ________ dinner in the kitchen, the telephone rang.
A.cooks B.cooked C.is cooking D.was cooking
【答案】D
【详解】句意:当我妈妈正在厨房做饭时,电话响了。
while引导的时间状语从句表示持续性的动作,结合主句the telephone rang是一般过去时,可知从句表示过去某一时刻正在进行的动作,应用过去进行时“was/were doing”的结构,主语为my mother,be动词用was,所以选was cooking。
(3) My mother was reading a newspaper ________ my father came back home.
A.while B.before C.when D.since
【答案】C
【详解】句意:我妈妈正在看报纸的时候,我爸爸回到了家。
while当……时,通常引导持续性的动作或状态;before在……之前;when当……时,既可以引导持续性的动作或状态,也可以引导短暂性的动作;since自从。根据“My mother was reading a newspaper…my father came back home.”可知,此处表示“当……时”,且“came back home”是短暂性动作,用when引导时间状语从句。应填when。
(4) The rainstorm came while Ann ________ her purse in the classroom.
A.was looking for B.looked for C.is looking for D.looks for
【答案】A
【详解】句意:暴雨来临时,安正在教室里找她的钱包。
主句“The rainstorm came”是一般过去时,while引导时间状语从句时,强调主句动作(暴风雨到来)发生的时刻,从句动作(找钱包)正在进行,因此从句需要用过去进行时,结构为was/were + 动词现在分词,主语Ann是第三人称单数,对应be动词用was。
(5) —What were your parents doing ________ you left home this morning?
—My mother was sweeping the floor ________ my father was doing the dishes.
A.while; when B.when; while C.when; since D.while; while
【答案】B
【详解】句意:——今天早上你离开家的时候,你的父母正在做什么?——我妈妈正在扫地,而我爸爸正在洗碗。
when和while都有“当……时候”的意思,when引导的从句谓语动词可以是延续性动词,也可以是非延续性动词,while引导的从句谓语动词必须是延续性动词,且强调主从句两个动作同时发生;since表示“自从……以来”。根据语境可知,第一个空,表示“当……时候”,且从句中的left为非延续性动词,因此用when引导;第二个空,表示两个动作同时发生,且从句中的“was doing the dishes.”为延续性动词,因此用while引导。所以应填when;while。
4. 过去进行时与一般过去时的区别
(1) 一般过去时表示过去某个时间发生过的动作或存在的状态,一般表示动作已完成,强调结果。
过去进行时表示过去某一时刻或某个时间段正在进行的动词,表示动作正在做,强调过程。
Sandy did her homework last night. 桑迪昨晚写作业了。(作业已写完)
Sandy was doing her homework last night. 桑迪昨晚一直在写作业。(作业不一定写完了)
(2) 表示过去动作时,非延续性动词一般用一般过去时。
表示过去动作时,延续性动词可以用一般过去时,也可以用过去进行时。使用过去进行时表明动作在持续进行。
It began to rain when they were playing soccer. 他们正在踢足球时开始下雨了。
She cooked dinner.她做了晚饭。(动作做完了,只陈述事实)
She was cooking dinner at 7:00.七点时她正在做晚饭。(强调当时正在持续做)

A.stayed B.was staying C.have stayed D.stay
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——莉莉安,你参观过香港的主题公园海洋公园吗?——是的,我在那里待了三天。

(2) When the earthquake ______, I ______ in the kitchen.
A.happened; cooked B.happened; was cooking
C.was happening; cooked D.was happening; was cooking
【答案】B
【详解】句意:当地震发生时,我正在厨房做饭。

考查过去进行时和一般过去时的用法。本句描述过去一个正在进行的动作(在公园散步)被另一个突然发生的动作(下雨)打断。根据英语语法规则,表示过去某个时刻正在进行的动作用过去进行时(was/were doing),而表示在过去某一特定时刻瞬间发生的动作用一般过去时(did)。A项和C项的第一个动词walked是一般过去时,不能准确表达“正在散步”这一持续进行的情景;D项的第二个动词was starting是过去进行时,不能准确表达“突然开始”这一瞬间动作。符合语法规则的组合应为“was walking(过去进行时) + started(一般过去时)”。故选B。

A.has practised B.is practising C.will practise D.was practising

(6) I’m sorry that I didn’t answer your phone just now. I ________ at that time.
A.drive B.was driving C.drove D.am driving
【答案】B

A.watched; were coming B.watched; came
C.were watching; came D.were watching; were coming
【答案】C
【详解】句意:当我们正在看录像时,一些游客来到我们班。
考查过去进行时和一般过去时。分析题干和选项可知,此处表示在过去某个时间一个动作正在进行的时候,另一个动作发生,while引导的时间状语从句表示过去正在进行的动作,应用过去进行时;主句表示另一个动作,应用一般过去时。故选C。
(10) While we________ TV in the living room, we_________ a strange sound outside the room.
A.were watching; were hearing B.watched; were hearing
C.watched; heard D.were watching; heard

考查动词时态。while引导的时间状语从句强调“在……期间”,常与过去进行时连用,表示动作在过去某段时间内正在进行,故第一空填“were watching”;主句中“听到奇怪声音”是一个短暂性动作,用一般过去时“heard”。“hear”表示“听到”的结果,通常不用于进行时态。故选D。
2. 用所给词的适当形式填空
(1) My mother with a few old friends ________ (dance) happily when we arrived.
【答案】was dancing
【详解】句意:当我们到达时,我妈妈和几个老朋友正在开心地跳舞。根据“when we arrived”可知,arrived是短暂性动词,表示“我们到达”那一瞬间,跳舞的动作正在进行,因此主句需用过去进行时。“with a few old friends”为伴随状语,“My mother”后接with结构时,谓语动词的数由with前面的主语(My mother)决定,My mother为第三人称单数,故be动词用was,dance的现在分词形式为dancing。故填was dancing。
(2) While they ________ (walk) around the halls, a guide introduced famous items on display.
【答案】were walking
【详解】句意:当他们在大厅里参观时,一位导游介绍了展出的著名物品。主句“a guide introduced...”使用了一般过去时,说明动作发生在过去;while引导的时间状语从句表示“过去某个动作正在进行时,另一个动作发生”,因此从句要用过去进行时,结构为“was/were+现在分词”。主语they是复数,be动词用were,walk的现在分词为walking。
(3) — Could you please lower your voice? It’s just 9:30 p.m.
— Sorry, I didn’t realize I ________ (read) English in such a loud voice.
【答案】was reading
【详解】句意:——你能小声点吗?现在才晚上九点半。——抱歉,我没意识到我刚才正在大声读英语。主句为一般过去时,从句表示过去正在进行的动作,应用过去进行时,结构为was/were+doing,主语I对应was,read的现在分词是reading。
(4) I ________ (take) a shower when the earthquake ________ (happen) last night.
【答案】 was taking happened
【详解】句意:昨晚地震发生时,我正在洗澡。主句表示地震发生时,“我正在洗澡”,是过去正在进行的动作,要用过去进行时。主语是I,过去进行时结构为was/were + 动词现在分词,所以填was taking。when引导的从句中,“地震发生”是过去发生的瞬时动作,用一般过去时,happen的过去式是happened。

(7) He didn’t notice anybody pass him because he ________ (sleep) on the quiet night train to Lhasa.
【答案】was sleeping
【详解】句意:他没有注意到任何人经过他身边,因为他在开往拉萨的安静夜行列车上睡着了。“didn’t notice”为一般过去时,从句描述“没有注意到”的原因,即当时正在发生的动作,需用过去进行时。主语“he”为第三人称单数,谓语结构为“was + 现在分词”,sleep的现在分词为sleeping。
(8) I couldn’t get through to Ann last night. Her brother ________ (talk) on the phone all the time.
【答案】was talking
【详解】句意:我昨晚没能打通安的电话,她哥哥一直在打电话。句中“last night”表明过去时间,“all the time”强调过去某段时间内持续进行的动作,应用过去进行时,结构为was/were + 现在分词,主语Her brother为单数,be动词用was,talk变为现在分词需直接加ing。
(9) I ________ (ride) my bicycle by the river when I ________ (hit) a hole in the road.
【答案】 was riding hit
【详解】句意:我正在河边骑自行车时,撞到了路上的一个坑。 此句适用“过去进行时+when+一般过去时”的结构(表示一个动作正在进行时,另一个动作突然发生):“骑自行车”是过去正在进行的动作,用过去进行时,主语“I”对应的结构是“was riding”;“撞到坑”是过去突然发生的短暂动作,用一般过去时,“hit”的过去式为其本身“hit”。故填was riding;hit。
(10) While the birds ________ (sing) in the tree, the cat ________ (sleep) under the tree.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者一家人上周在强台风来袭前后所做的准备、经历的过程以及事后的感悟。
(1)句意:父亲用木板遮住窗户,母亲储存食物和水。
全文讲述上周发生的事,用一般过去时,所以此处应填入covered,cover的过去式,作谓语。
(2)句意:当我们正在做那件事的时候,风开始猛烈地刮起来。
“…we were doing that, the wind started to blow strongly.”提示,此处强调“风开始猛烈地刮起来”和“我们正在做那件事”两个动作同时发生,所以此处应用while引导时间状语从句,位于句首,首字母要大写。
(3)句意:我正在房间里看书,突然听到外面一声巨响。
“I…in my room when I suddenly heard a loud noise outside.”提示,此处考查:was/were doing…when…“正在做某事,突然……”,固定搭配,指正在读书,突然听到巨响。
(4)句意:我的妈妈抱了抱她,给她讲了个故事让她好受点。

(6)句意:台风过后,我们出去查看损失。
后半句“we went outside to check the damage.”提示,结合常识可知,台风过后,我们才会出去查看损失。After“在……之后”。

“make good…for a natural disaster”提示,结合选项可知,此处考查:make preparations for“为……做准备”,固定搭配,指为自然灾害做好准备。
(8)句意:此外,我们应该保持冷静,在困难时期互相帮助。
“help…during difficult times”提示,结合选项可知,此处指在困难时期互相帮助,one another和each other的中文意思都是“互相”,意思相同,可互换。
(9)句意:强风开始时,她的家人正开车回家。
句中“when the strong winds started.”提示,动作发生在过去,时态为一般过去时;句中“family”在这里指“全家人”,是复数概念,所以此处be动词要用were。
(10)句意:尝试新事物可以帮助我们保持安全。
形容词修饰复合不定代词要后置,故排除A、C;anything常用于否定句或疑问句中,something常用于肯定句中,该句是肯定句,应选B。
