Answer :

• We use the past continuous form of the verb "have".
• In grammar, tense is a category that expresses time reference. Tenses are usually manifested by the use of specific forms of verbs, particularly in their conjugation patterns. The main tenses found in many languages include the past, present, and future.
• The present continuous, also called the present progressive or present imperfect, is a verb form used in modern English that combines the present tense with the continuous aspect. It is formed by the present tense form of be and the present participle of a verb.
• Tenses are of three kinds : Past , Present , Future.
• Each kind of tense is further sub divided into four sub parts : Simple , Continuous , Perfect and Perfect Continuous.
• Simple past tense is used to indicate an action which had taken place in the past and has no impact of it at present.
• So, the final answer is : I didn’t hear the phone ring because I was having a shower.
