IV. LET’S PRACTISE!

PRACTISE - EXERCISE 1: Complete the following sentences with “when” or “while”. Follow the
examples. (Complete las siguientes oraciones con “when” o “while”. Siga los ejemplos.)

Look! (¡Mira!)
Normalmente cuando utilizamos when (cuando) y while (mientras) en inglés hacemos una combinación de dos
tiempos verbales: el pasado simple y el pasado continuo. Esto ocurre porque mientras estamos expresando una
acción que estaba en progreso en el pasado se acción se cruza con otra que en cierta medida interrumpe a la
primera, es decir, tienes que dejar de hacer lo que estabas haciendo para atendar a la nueva circunstancia. Por
ejemplo:
While I was watching TV, someone knocked the door. (Mientras yo estaba viendo la televisión alguien tocó la puerta)
I was walking home when I saw Steve. (Iba caminando a casa cuando vi a Steve.)
