  (1) 过去进行时通常表示一个过去正在进行的动作;而一般过去时则通常表示一个过去已经完成的动作。如:

  I was reading the newspaper last night. 我昨晚在看书。(不一定看完)

  I read the newspaper last night. 我昨晚看了报纸。(已经看完)

  He was building a model ship out of wood. 他在那里修一座桥。(不一定建成)

  He built a model ship out of wood. 他用木头造了个模型船。(已建成)

  (2) 少数动词如rain, snow, cough, wear, feel, work等的一般过去时并不表示动作完成,这时用两种时态都可以,且含义区别不大。如:

  It snowed / was snowing all day yesterday. 昨天下了一天的雪。

  She didn't feel / wasn't feeling well that day. 那天她感到不太舒服。

  The child coughed / was coughing all night. 这孩子咳嗽了一整夜。
