FURTHER PRACTICE * Remember: I. The past continuous tense (Thì quá khứ tiếp diễn) a) We use the past continuous to describe an action that was happening at a particular time in the past, or a past action that was happening when another action interrupted it. (Chúng ta dùng thì quá khứ tiếp diễn để diễn tả một hành động đang xảy ra tại một thời điểm cụ thể trong quá khứ hoặc một hành động quá khứ đang xảy ra thì có một hành động khác xen vào.) Cấu trúc: S + was/ were + V-ing. Eg: a) Tom had a nightmare while he was sleeping in the camp by the old castle. b) People were preserving the monument for years because it had great value. b) We also use the past continuous to emphasise how long an action took and how much time somebody spent doing it. + We usually use adverb phrases that explain the length of time such as: all morning / week / year; for hours / days / weeks / months / years. ( Chúng ta cũng dùng thì quá khứ tiếp diễn để nhấn mạnh một hành động diễn ra trong bao lâu và ai đó đã dành bao nhiêu thời gian để thực hiện nó. + Chúng ta thường sử dụng các cụm trạng từ để giải thích khoảng thời gian như: - all morning (cả buổi sáng)/ week (cả tuần)/ year (cả năm); - for hours (trong suốt nhiều giờ )/ days (trong suốt nhiều ngày)/ weeks (trong suốt nhiều tuần)/ months (trong suốt nhiều tháng)/ years (trong suốt nhiều năm) ) Eg: a) We were cooking all morning because we had our friends coming for lunch. b) My dad first met my mum when he was visiting Hoi An Ancient Town.
