　　<例句>

　　What were you doing when I rang you?

　　<語(yǔ)法分析>

　　過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)主要表示過(guò)去某時(shí)的一個(gè)動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行，而過(guò)去的時(shí)間可以由一個(gè)狀語(yǔ)表示出來(lái)，有時(shí)候時(shí)間由上下文表示出來(lái)。過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)既具有一般過(guò)去時(shí)的特點(diǎn)，又具有進(jìn)行時(shí)的特點(diǎn)。過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)與一般過(guò)去時(shí)的基本差別是，前者表示一個(gè)正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作，而后者則表示一個(gè)已經(jīng)完成的動(dòng)作。而且，用進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)時(shí)有時(shí)有感情色彩。
