I have found this question online. We are supposed to fill in the blanks with either the simple past tense or the past progressive tense.

Answer:

Last year I provided first aid for the first time when I was in Reading to visit a friend of mine. We were sitting in John's garden when we suddenly heard a squeal of tires and a bang. Then there was a lot of shouts and cries. I immediately knew what was going on. I rushed through the garden gate, and when I reached the car I saw two injured persons: The driver was sitting behind the steering wheel, and blood was running from a wound to his head; his wife was lying on the ground beside the open left-hand door. Some neighbors or passers-by helped her, so I opened the other door and carefully dragged him out of the car and put him in a side position. I was talking to him and trying to stop the blood with a paper hanky when the ambulance arrived.

Explanation:

The past progressive tense is used to emphasize an action that lasted for some time in the past. It uses the verb "to be" in its past form (was/were) and a main verb with -ing. The example below helps illustrate it:

- I was cooking lunch when my mother arrived.

The simple past tense is used to express action that happened at a specific time in the past. It is commonly used with expressions of time, such as "yesterday", "last year", "two days ago", etc.

Verbs in the simple past can be regular or irregular. To regular verbs, we simply add -d, -ed, or -ied to form the past. For example: work - worked; arrive - arrived; dance - danced; study - studied.

When it comes to irregular verbs, we must memorize the past form of each. For example: do - did; eat - ate; make - made; swim - swam; speak - spoke.

The sentence below is in the simple past:

- I tried to help the man, but he said he was alright.

my friend she don't have no sisters.

Here is a better way to read it

The first of these two passages from stories by Jack London is about a man at sea, heading west. The second is about a miner who has discovered a rich vein of gold he names Mr. Pocket.,end italics,



For seven weeks the Mary Rogers had been between 50 degrees south in the Atlantic and 50 degrees south in the Pacific, which meant that for seven weeks she had been struggling to round Cape Horn. . . . For seven weeks she had wrestled with the Cape Horn graybeards, and in return been buffeted and smashed by them. She was a wooden ship, and her ceaseless straining had opened her seams, so that twice a day the watch took its turn at the pumps.

The Mary Rogers was strained, the crew was strained, and big Dan Cullen, master, was likewise strained. Perhaps he was strained most of all, for upon him rested the responsibility of that titanic struggle. He slept most of the time in his clothes, though he rarely slept. He haunted the deck at night, a great, burly, robust ghost, black with the sunburn of thirty years of sea and hairy as an orang-outang. He, in turn, was haunted by one thought of action, a sailing direction for the Horn: Whatever you do, make westing! make westing!



(from "Make Westing" by Jack London)





Nightfall found him by the edge of the stream his eyes wrestling with the gathering darkness over the washing of a five-dollar pan.

"Wisht I had an electric light to go on working," he said.

He found sleep difficult that night. Many times he composed himself and closed his eyes for slumber to overtake him; but his blood pounded with too strong desire, and as many times his eyes opened and he murmured wearily, "Wisht it was sun-up."

Sleep came to him in the end, but his eyes were open with the first paling of the stars, and the gray of dawn caught him with breakfast finished and climbing the hillside in the direction of the secret abiding-place of Mr. Pocket.
