2. Passe as frases a seguir para a forma negativa do past continuous.

a) I wasn't reading a very pleasant book last night. (to read)

b) He wasn't watching TV when his mother arrived. (to watch)

c) My father and my little brother weren't playing  soccer yesterday.  (to play)

d) My mother  wasn't having lunch with her friends last week. (to have)

e) They  weren't working hard in their College project. (to work)​

Explicação:

O Past Continuous (Passado Contínuo) é um tempo verbal utilizado para indicar ações contínuas que ocorreram no passado.

O verbo auxiliar desse tempo verbal é o verbo to be no passado (Was/Were).

I - Was                         You - Were

She/He - Was              It - Was

We - Were                   They - Were

Forma Negativa (Negative Form) :

Nas frases negativas, utiliza-se o not após o verbo to be.

Estrutura:

Sujeito + Verbo to be no Simple Past + not + Verbo principal com –ing + Complemento

OBS.: É muito comum o uso da abreviação do verbo to be + not.

Were + not = Weren't

Was + not = Wasn't

Usando uma resposta como exemplo:

They  weren't working hard in their College project.

They - Sujeito

weren't - Verbo to be no Simple Past + not

working - Verbo principal com –ing

hard in their College project - Complemento
