Mulher caminhando com guarda-chuva em dia chuvoso enquanto cão observa ao fundo, ilustrando Simple Past and Past Continuous + Exercícios e Gabarito.

Diferença entre o Simple Past e o Past Continuous


Simple Past

Usado para ações que aconteceram e acabaram em um tempo determinado no passado.


Exemplo:
She stayed home yesterday.
(Ela ficou em casa ontem.)

Past Continuous

Usado para ações que estavam acontecendo em um determinado momento do passado.

Exemplo:
I was studying at 8 p.m. last night.
(Eu estava estudando às 8 horas ontem à noite.)

Simple Past + Past Continuous

Quando usamos esses dois tempos verbais juntos, ele nos mostra que a ação do Simple Past aconteceu enquanto a ação do Past Continuous estava em andamento.

Exemplo:
While I was studying, Mary arrived.
(Enquanto eu estava estudando, Mary chegou.)

Geralmente usamos esses dois tempos verbais juntos para mostrar uma ação interrompendo outra ação.

Exemplo:
She was skiing when she broke her leg.
(Ela estava esquiando quando quebrou a perna)


Compare as três frases:


1) Simple Past + Past Continuous

When Bob arrived, Mary was cooking dinner.
(Quando o Bob chegou, Mary estava preparando o jantar.)

2) Simple Past + Simple Past

When Bob arrived, Mary cooked dinner.
(Quando o Bob chegou, Mary preparou o jantar.)


3) Past Continuous + Past Continuous

Mary was cooking dinner while Bob was taking a shower.
(Mary estava preparando o jantar enquanto Bob estava tomando banho.) 

Na primeira frase, Mary começou a preparar o jantar antes do Bob chegar. Sabemos disso por causa do uso do Past Continuous. 

Na segunda frase, primeiro o Bob chegou e só então Mary começou a preparar o jantar.

Na terceira frase, a duas ações ocorreram ao mesmo tempo.

Resumindo:

Simple Past 

Past Continuous 

Use com a ação que interrompe.

Use com a ação em andamento.

She called me

while I was studying.

Diferença entre Should e Ought to + Exercícios e Gabarito

Estudante escrevendo em caderno durante aula de inglês, ilustrando a diferença entre Should e Ought to com exercícios e gabarito.

Como Usar Should e Ought to 


Should é um verbo modal.

Ought To é um verbo semi-modal, ou seja, é seguido de infinitivo com TO.

Tanto Should quanto Ought To são iguais para todos os sujeitos.

Exemplo com o pronome you (você) e o verbo to go (ir)

Forma Afirmativa

You should go

You ought to go

Forma Negativa

You should not go ou you shouldn’t go

You ought not to go ou you oughtn’t to go

Forma Interrogativa

Should you go?

Ought you to go?

Obs: Ought To existe nas formas negativa e interrogativa, porém raramente é usado atualmente.

Tanto Should quanto Ought To são usados para expressar conselho, sugestão, 
obrigação ou dever. 

Should e Ought To possuem basicamente o mesmo sentido.
Exemplos:
We should go home now. 
We ought to go home now. 
(Nós devemos ir para casa agora.)

Should é usado quando queremos expressar nossa opinião subjetiva. Ou seja é 
usado para dizer o que eu acho melhor para você.

Exemplos:
You should call your mother more often.
(Você deve ligar para sua mãe com mais frequência.)

He should apologize for that. 
(Ele deveria se desculpar por isso.)

Ought To é usado quando queremos expressar uma verdade objetiva. Ou seja, o que é necessário e não pode ser evitado. É por isso que ought to geralmente é usado para leis, deveres e regulamentos.

Exemplos:
He ought to follow the school’s policy, or he will get expelled.

According to this road sign, they ought to stop here.
