Past Simple végig.
Nem is értem, hova kellene Continuous??
Végig past simple, kivéve: They were digging for gold in the streams and rivers. The weather was bad. It was raining and the wind was blowing. The men were cold because they were wearing only thin trousers.
És: He used the sailcloth which he was transporting to make trousers for the men.
Nos, helyesbítek, nem végig Past Simple, nem voltam elég alapos.
In 1850, Levi WAS TAKING some sailcloth from New York to San Francisco when he MET some men.
The men were cold because they WERE WEARING only thin trousers. (ahogy az előző is írta)
E között a két mondat közötti rész, ami az időjárásra vonatkozik, pedig szerintem mindkét verzió helyes.
