The paragraph contains several errors in the use of commas. Decide if the underlined part of the text needs to be revised or if

it is correct as is.
Each year since 1901 the Nobel Prize has been awarded to a wide range of international recipients for their achievements in chemistry, literature, medicine, peace and physics. Funds for the Nobel Prize were established in the will of Alfred Nobel written in 1895. Nobel's own interests in science invention, entrepreneurship, writing, and peace are reflected in the categories for the prizes. Few of the recipients have been household names; and only a small fraction have been Americans. No Peace Prize was awarded during the early part of World War I, from 1914 to 1916, but the award was bestowed on the International Red Cross in 1917. Similarly no prizes at all were awarded during part of World War II: from 1940 through 1942; and the International Red Cross again won the Peace Prize in 1944. Other well-known American recipients have been Jane Addams in 1931, Martin Luther King Jr. in 1964, and Henry Kissinger in 1973. Most recently, Al Gore former vice president under Bill Clinton, won the Peace Prize in 2007, and President Barack Obama won it in 2009.

2.2) Put the verbs into the past simple or past continuous.
Ludmilka [50]

We can complete the sentences considering that the past continuous indicates the action that was taking place when another action happened (simple past).

  • Were... driving? / stopped
  • was snowing / left
  • didn't see / was working
  • called / was talking
  • were studying / met
  • Were... living / had

<h3>What is the simple past tense?</h3>

The simple past tense is the form of the verb we use to indicate that an action took place in the past. We use the simple past tense when the action has already finished.

Examples:

  • Affirmative: I saw you at the party last night.
  • Negative: I didn't see you at the party last night.
  • Interrogative: Did you see me at the party last night?

<h3>What is the past continuous tense?</h3>

The past continuous tense is used to indicate that an action had a longer duration in the past, that is, that it started in the past, lasted for a while, and then ended.

Examples:

  • Affirmative: She was watching her favorite cartoon.
  • Negative: She wasn't watching her favorite cartoon.
  • Interrogative: Was she watching her favorite cartoon.

The two tenses can be used in the same sentence to indicate that one action - simple past - interrupted another action - past continuous - or happened while the other action was taking place.

Example:

  • I was cooking when someone rang the doorbell.
