Past Continuous упражнения

Время английского языка past continuous определяет отрезок времени в прошлом, в течении которого производилось какое-то действие. Например, вчера с 2 до 5 я играл в футбол. — I was playing football from 2 to 5 pm yesterday. Сегодня предлагаем материал «past continuous упражнения», который поможет вам лучше усвоить тему past continuous и набить руку на практике. Помните: хорошо изученная теория, подкрепленная практикой, гарантирует 100%-й результат. В данной статье предлагаем сделать несколько упражнений, но перед этим напомним особенности образования прошедшего продолженного времени.

Past Continuous: особенности образования

Прошедшее продолженное время образуется по следующей схеме: вспомогательный глагол to be в прошедшем времени (was/were)+основная форма глагола+окончание -ing.

Например:

• I was watching TV when the accident started. — Я смотрел телевизор, когда началось происшествие.
• She was knitting the sweater when I came in. — Когда я вошел, она вязала свитер.
• They were solving the problem while others play cards. — Пока остальные играли в карты, они решали проблему.

Напомним, как образуется The Past Continuous в утвердительном, отрицательном и вопросительном предложениях (в качестве примера возьмем слово say):

Affirmative	Interrogative	Negative
I was saying	Was I saying?	I was not saying
You were saying	Were you saying?	You were not saying
He/she was saying	Was he/she saying?	He/she was not saying
We were saying	Were we saying?	We were not saying
They were saying	Were they saying?	They were not saying

Теперь, когда теорию мы повторили, приступаем практической части – упражнениям. Предлагаем сделать следующие The past continuous exercises.

упражнения с ответами для школьников и взрослых

Приветствую, мой дорогой читатель.

Помните, что я все время повторяю: практика, практика и только практика! Если вы уже знаете основные правила времени Past Continuous, то могу вас поздравить — мы переходим на следующие уровень — «Past Continuous: упражнения»!

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.

Вставьте правильную форму глагола.

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.

Упражнение 3.

Вставьте слова в правильной форме.

1. Tom (to walk) home when the storm (to begin).
2. What (you \ to read) when they came in?
3. While I (to dig) in the garden, I (to hurt) my arm.

4. Jake and Kiley were leaving the shop. The police officer stopped them.
5. The children were playing. Their mother was cooking.

 

Для учеников 7 класса или даже 8 класса будет намного интереснее и значительно полезнее делать задания на перевод. Знаний правил у них уже достаточно, да и практики тоже, поэтому стоит взяться за что-то сложнее.

Упражнение 5.

Переведите на английский язык.

1. В прошлый вторник в 5 часов вечера у них была конференция.
2. Мы накрывали на стол, когда приехали гости.
