Explicación:
El pasado continuo se utiliza para acciones que estaban pasando en un momento específico en el pasado. Como el presente continuo, se forma con el verbo auxiliar “to be” y el verbo+ing.
Usamos el pasado continuo para hablar sobre el pasado :
-Por algo que sucedió antes y después de otra acción:
- The children were doing their homework when I got home.
-We do not normally use the past continuous with stative verbs. We use the past simple instead:
- When I got home, I really needed (NOT was needing) a shower.
