1.过去进行时往往表示动作的未完成性,而一般过去时往往表示动作已完成。试比较:Davidwrotealettertohisfatherlastnight.大卫昨晚给他父亲写了一封信。(信写完了。)Davidwaswritingalettertohisfatherlastnight.大卫昨晚正在给他父亲写信。(指信在写的过程中,不一定写完。)2.过去进行时和always连用,表示赞扬、感叹、厌恶等感情色彩;而一般过去时和always连用,表示经常或反复发生的动作。试比较:Hewasalwayschanginghismind.他总是三心二意。(表示厌恶)Healwayswenttoworkbybuslastyear.去年他总是乘坐公共汽车上班。(表示经常性动作)3.一般说来,过去进行时侧重动作持续时间的长度;而一般过去时只说明过去某时发生某事,侧重说明事实。试比较:Itwasrainingheavilylastnight.昨晚下着大雨。(侧重说明下雨持续的时间长。)Itrainedheavilylastnight.昨天下了大雨。(侧重说明下雨这一事实。)4.在带有allnight,thewholemorning等强调时间长度的状语时,句中谓语动词用过去进行时更好些。如:HewasworkingallnightlastMonday.上周一他整整工作了一个晚上。5.在when引导的时间状语从句中,当when相当于while时,用一般过去时与过去进行时差异不大。如:IsawJohnwhenIwalked/waswalkingtothestation.我步行去火车站时看见了约翰。但当when分句中的谓语动词为一般过去,其主句用一般过去时或过去进行时,有时会引起时间关系的变化。试比较:Whenwearrived,shewasmakingsomefreshcoffee.我们到达时,她在调制咖啡。(分句动作发生时,主句动作已在发生.)Whenwearrived,shemadesomefreshcoffee.我们到达时,她调制了咖啡。(分句动作发生在主句动作之前。)6.有些表示状态、感觉、心理或情感的动词,如:be,have(有),see,hear,know,think,believe,understand等,一般不用过去进行时,而用一般过去时。如:Ihadalotofworktodoyesterday.昨天我有许多工作要做。
