Past Continuous

• We use the past continuous to talk about something that was happening over a period of time in the past: I was watching TV all yesterday afternoon.

• See Grammar reference, Unit 4, page 153

• Let’s practice: Complete the sentences using the correct past continuous form of the verbs in brackets.

Linking words

• We use linking words (and, because, but, or, when) to connect one phrase, clause or sentence with another.

• We can use the linking word at the beginning or the middle of the sentence: When we arrived at the airport, there was a terrible storm.
