Here are the answers using Past Simple or Past Continuous with explanations: 1. **Were** you **inviting** guests when you **were** at the international school? (Использован Past Continuous, так как вопрос подразумевает действие в процессе в прошлом.) 2. I **was listening** to loud music when the keeper **turned** it off. (Past Continuous описывает действие, происходившее в определенный момент в прошлом, которое было прервано другим действием в Past Simple.) 3. Mike **was parking** his bike in the garden when he **saw** the sign. (Аналогично второму пункту: Past Continuous для действия в процессе, Past Simple - для прервавшего его действия.) 4. Sam **read** the rules when the other students **came**. (Оба действия завершены в прошлом и произошли последовательно, поэтому используется Past Simple.) **Общий ответ:** 1. Were you inviting, were 2. was listening, turned 3. was parking, saw 4. read, came
