Grammer how do i tell the simple past tense apart from the past continuous tense

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The main difference between past simple and past continuous tense is that:

we use past simple tense when something happened at some time in past. We also commonly use this tense with past time adverbs (yesterday, last night, two days ago, etc.)

For example: John called his friend yesterday.

we use past continuous tense if an action occurred in the past and lasted for a period of time.

Example: I was reading a book all day yesterday.

We used past continuous tense because the action of reading lasted for some time (a whole day in this case).

What is a "between the lines" question?

inessss [21]

Answer:

Reading between the lines is also known as inferring. It is when the information isn't explicit but you have to do some digging for it and it is not out of reach, therefore a reading between the lines question is a question where it doesn't give you all of the info, but you have to work out some of it for yourself.
