Past continuous tense
I met Monica when I was shopping. = 我在购物时遇到了Monica。

在这过去进行时的句子中有两件过去的事发生。简单过去式表示之前结束的情况(I met Monica,我遇到了Monica)而过去进行时是指着当时正在发生的情况(when I was shopping,当我在购物时).
While I was shopping, I met Monica. = 当我在购物时,我遇到了Monica。
在过去简单式和过去进行时发生的事件可在句子中呈现发生的先后次序。

我们用 'when' (...的时候) or 'while' (当)来连接发生在简单过去式和过去进行时的事件。

例如 : I was shopping when I met Monica. = 遇到Monica
=
While I was shopping, I met Monica.
1: While I was shopping: Subject + was/were + Verb -ing
I met Monica: Subject + Verb (past tense) + Object
=
They were eating candies when Mother came.
2: They were eating candies: Subject + was/were + Verb -ing
when Mother came: Subject + Verb (past tense)
Jimmy broke his leg when he was playing hockey = Jimmy昨天打曲棍球的时候把腿弄断了。
这里的过去式词(broke) 表示已经发生了的事情。
对于常发生的事情则要用Past continuous描述。(Was playing hockey).

在这里,Jimmy在打曲棍球的时候把腿弄断了,这时侯打曲棍球这个动作已经中止了。
Past Continuous的格式是 'was / were' + 动词+ '-ing'。
