3º ano English

Hello beloved students. From the heart, missing you very much is in person with you!

Are they fulfilling the quarantine? Hope so!!!

Take care!!!

Esta semana trabalharemos com o Passado Contínuo ou Progressivo - Past Continuous or Progressive- Parte I

O Passado Contínuo, basicamente, descreve uma ação que estava ocorrendo em um certo período no passado.

O Past Continuous é formado pelo passado simples do verbo to be (was/were) + o gerúndio (-ing) do verbo principal.

- USOS:

O Past Continuous é usado para:

1. Descrever uma ação em andamento num determinado momento no passado:

Fred was dancing with his girlfriend. (Fred estava dançando com sua namorada.)

I was talking to my boss when you called me yesterday afternoon. (Eu estava falando com meu chefe quando você me ligou ontem à tarde.)

They were screaming last night. (Eles estavam gritando ontem à noite.)

We were going to the beach when our car broke down. (Estávamos indo para praia quando nosso carro estragou.)

What were you doing at 6:00 p.m.? (O que você estava fazendo às 18:00?)

2. Narrar as circunstâncias de uma situação passada:

It was almost midnight and I was getting tired, but I couldn't go to bed because I had lots of things to study.

(Era quase meia-noite e eu estava ficando cansado, mas não podia dormir porque tinha muitas coisas para estudar.)

It was Sunday morning, the sun was shining in the sky. (Era domingo de manhã, o sol estava brilhando no céu.)

3. Descrever ações em andamento simultâneo. Nesses casos, geralmente usa-se a conjunção while:

Susan was playing while Mary was studying for her test. (Susan estava brincando enquanto Mary estava estudando para sua prova.)

4. Falar, indicar uma ação habitual que ocorria no passado. Normalmente usa-se os advérbios de frequência: constantly, often, always entre o passado simples do verbo to be e o verbo principal:

She was constantly talking to her classmates. Her teacher didn't like that. (Ela estava constantemente falando com seus colegas. Sua professora não gostava disso.)

They were always asking the same questions. (Eles estavam sempre fazendo as mesmas perguntas.)

Observação!!!

A atividade deve ser realizada no seu caderno ou caso deseje, faça impressão. Na semana seguinte o gabarito será publicado para correção.
