一般过去时 · PET / B1

把过去事件放进完整故事：掌握时间顺序、否定提问与已结束的过去状态。
讲述完整事件
一般过去时报告过去发生的事件，也能描述已结束的习惯与状态。
We lived near the coast for two years before we moved here.
搬到这里之前，我们在海边住过两年。
for two years 不一定用现在完成时；已经结束的居住经历可用一般过去时。
was / were 与 did 分开
be 的否定或提问直接改变 was / were；实义动词用 did + 原形。
Was the trip expensive? Did you buy a ticket online?
旅行贵吗？你在网上买票了吗？
不要同时写 Did you were 或 Did you bought。
词形与读音
规则动词的 -ed 读音可不同；不规则动词需要记忆并在语境中使用。
We watched a film, played a game and wanted to stay longer.
我们看了电影，玩了游戏，还想多待一会儿。
watched 末尾 /t/，played /d/，wanted /ɪd/；最后的音决定 -ed 的读法。
说清叙事顺序
first、then、after that、finally 帮助组织事件；before / after 能直接说明先后。
After we missed the train, we called our parents.
错过火车后，我们给父母打了电话。
不要只用 yesterday 判断；看事件是否放在一个已经结束的过去时间里。

答案与解释
1. A · lived
from 2020 to 2022 加 moved away 明确说明居住已经结束。
2. A · He arrived and then we ordered lunch.
两个一般过去时按这里的语境通常表示先到达，再点餐。
3. A · did not attend
实义动词 attend 的否定用 did not + 原形。
4. C · Were
crowded 在这里描述状态；streets 是复数，用 Were。
5. B · left
leave 的过去式是 left。
6. A · No, that period of work has ended.
but I now work elsewhere 明确表明原工作阶段已结束；for 不决定时态。
7. B · wanted
want 的末音 /t/ 后，-ed 读 /ɪd/，增加音节。
8. A · Why did you leave early?
did 提问后使用 leave 原形。

参考表达
Last Saturday, my friend and I planned to visit a museum. We checked the bus times, but we waited at the wrong stop. After twenty minutes, we realised our mistake and asked a shop assistant for help. She showed us the way to the station. We caught a train instead and arrived before lunch. The journey was stressful, but the exhibition was worth it.
