Answer:

Explanation:

The past continuous tense is used to describe actions that began in the past and often continued for a short period of time after the action started. This tense describes actions or events that happened at a specific time in the past. These actions are usually no longer happening at the time the sentence is being said or written.

The following are basic examples of the past continuous tense. The verb tense in each sentence is underlined.

When we got to the house yesterday morning, the baby was drinking a bottle.

He was waiting at home all day when she sent him the message.

Alan was cutting the grass the other day when the snake appeared.

I was not sleeping when you got home late last night.
