Answer:

Past Simple Tense: <em>Talks about a completed action in time before </em><em>now</em>

  • She washed her car
  • I saw a horror movie yesterday

Past continuous tense: <em>Past continuous </em><em>tense </em><em>is </em><em>formed </em><em>from </em><em>the </em><em>past </em><em>using </em><em>'to </em><em>be' </em><em>with </em><em>the </em><em>base </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>main </em><em>verb </em><em>ending </em><em>with </em><em> </em><em>'ing'</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>(</em><em><u>Subject </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>was/</u></em><em><u>were </u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>base </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u>ing</u></em><em><u>)</u></em>
