Let's fill in the blanks with the correct form of the verbs in parentheses using either the Past Simple or the Past Continuous tense.
Here's how we can complete the sentences:
-
A: I didn't know you had a dog.
B: I found her on the street a month ago while I was walking back from school.
Explanation:
- In the first sentence, we use 'didn't know' because it expresses a state or a fact in the past. Since it's a negative statement about what someone knew, the Past Simple 'didn't know' is appropriate.
- In the second sentence, 'found' is used because it describes a completed action in the past. 'Was walking' is used because it describes an action in progress at a particular time in the past.
