Message de jardin62 posté le 19-04-2005 à 21:47:40 (S | E | F | I)

Nous en venons maintenant à la forme progressive de ce prétérit qui nous a occupés un bon moment.
1- Sa formation => be au prétérit +Ving
= [was, were, was not/wasn't, were not/weren't]+ base verbale +ing
Ex: I was reading a magazine (Je lisais un magazine) / She wasn't running very fast (Elle ne courait pas très vite) / Were they travelling by car? (Est-ce qu'ils voyageaient en voiture?)-

2- Emplois:
-Nous en resterons pour cette fois au 1er emploi: celui qui est la valeur de base de la forme -ing => une action envisagée dans son déroulement.
Ex: She was at home. She was phoning her mother. (=Elle était à la maison. Elle téléphonait à sa mère)
Application 1 = imitez l'exemple donné ci-dessus.
(* Il était 15 heures hier après-midi, que faisaient ces gens?)
1- Carol and her sister/at the market / sell vegetables from their garden
2- Tom/in his car/drive to the airport
3- Kate/at the station/wait for the Manchester train
4- Mr and Mrs Frazer/in the the park/ sit near the lake
5- And you? I...
Application 2 = Trouvez les questions/ Utilisez was/were +/-ing/ Utilisez what, where, why si nécessaire.
ex: he/work/in 1990 ? - No, he wasn't.
=> Was he working in 1990?
1- you/wait for them ? - At the bus-stop.
2- you/do/at 2 o'clock? - I was asleep.
3- it/rain/ when you got up? - No, it wasn't. It was sunny.
4- Anne/drive/ so fast ? - Because she was in a hurry.
5- Tim/watch ? - A very good reportage.
Application 3 = traduire.
1- Que faisaient-elles à 6 heures?
2- Elles prenaient le thé. (to have tea)
3- Pourquoi n'étaient-elles pas assises dans le jardin?
4- Parce qu'il pleuvait.
5- Est-ce qu'elles vous attendaient?
N°3 = une forme interro-négative + une contraction!
> Pour gagner du temps, donnez vos réponses sans recopier les éléments de départ/ ne traduisez pas en français/dans l'application 2 ne répondez pas, c'est déjà fait/
A bientôt.

Bon, comme je ne suis pas à un message près, disons que j'ai encore écrit plus vite que mon ombre, faisant encore des fautes. A commencer par la phrase 4 dans laquelle j'ai mis deux fois "the" devant "park". Et je viens de voir que je ne suis pas le seul.

4. Mr and Mrs Frazer were in the park. They were sitting near the lake.

Sorry!

Bonsoir tout le monde!
Merci grabuge, le petit jogging a été régénérateur!
Je vous retrouve bientôt...si vous avez du temps à perdre, j'ai fabriqué à votre intention et dans les meilleures intentions en ce qui concerne votre carnet de notes un exercice de 10 phrases dont voici le N° 1798

Hello, post-sriptum, lyne and grabuge!
Il n' y a rien à dire à votre travail sinon
=> Nous allons donc pouvoir faire un petit tour du côté du 2ème emploi de ce prétérit progressif? J'aurais bien aimé avoir vos réactions sur l'exercice N° 1798 avant, on a tout notre temps.
(A post-sriptum: Il y a des fautes de frappe tout à fait excusables quand on voit bien que ce sont des fautes de frappe, qu' elles ne laissent aucun doute: oublier de taper [-ing], , eût été plus gênant.)
A très bientôt?
Tenez bon la barre!

Hi, idem...
C'est vrai, tu as bien senti qu'il y a une suite mais rassure-toi, elle n'est pas aussi que pour le present perfect dit simple!

bonjour Jardin
J'ai fait le test 1798 voici mes conclusions : 8sur 20
les 2 premières phrases sont correctes.
la n°3 j'ai oublié le pronom your devant maths. (trop bête)
la n°4 j'ai mis How many au lieu de How much (confusion trop bête)
la n°5 correcte
les n°6 et 7 erreur de temps j'ai tout mis au prétérit alors qu'au premier jet j'avais écrit au prétérit progressif je sais la première intuition est toujours la bonne mais c'est la date qui m'a fait changer d'avis (action passée !!
la n°8 erreur dans le verbe j'ai repris told et il fallait mettre What did you do (rebête)
la n°9 j'ai posé cette question : Who did she wed with ? cela veut bien dire Avec qui s'est-elle mariée ? pour la bonne réponse : Who did Aunt Alice wed in 1942 ? cela veut dire la même chose

Bon je ne suis pas pessimiste je m'accroche à toutes ces branches le but c'est de comprendre et de se faire comprendre allez courage fuyons
see you later Jardin

Helo everyone.
L'exercice 1798 m'a posé, comme c'était prévisible, quelques soucis d'écriture... J'ai obtenu 12/20 à cet exercice.

- We left (at 6.00 in the morning).
When did we leave? Faux!
Réponse correcte: WHAT TIME DID YOU LEAVE?
La réponse correcte est bien mieux conctruite que la mienne !

- At 5 o'clock? We were (having tea), I think.
What were you doing at 5 o'clok? (horreur et damnation : clock !)
Faux! Réponse correcte: WHAT WERE YOU DOING AT 5 O'CLOCK?

- I told you (to brake)!
What did you tell? Faux!
Réponse correcte: WHAT DID YOU TELL ME TO DO?
Ici aussi, la réponse correcte est bien meilleure que la mienne !

- We were running (because...er... well...er...).
Why were you runnning? Faux! (damned! 2 "n" in running!)
Réponse correcte: WHY WERE YOU RUNNING?

Ah ! j'essaierai de mieux faire la prochaine fois... L'espoir fait vivre.
Thank you.

Hello Jardin
Un grand merci pour le test 1798 ! Il peut paraître facile - d'ailleurs il n'est pas si difficile - mais bonjour les étouderies, car il faut repérer en même temps les différences des pronoms sujets entre questions et réponses et bien repérer entre la forme simple et la forme progressive -
J'engage tout le monde à venir le faire, c'est une gymnastique nécessaire.
Allez, qui vient me "délocaliser" de mon 20 après plusieurs essais

Hello Jardin,

J'avais espéré pouvoir ôter Marie du 20/20 mais non !
J'ai fait deux fautes :
HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY FOR THEIR FLAT? Etourderie, j'ai mis you au lieu de they !

WHAT WERE YOU HAVING AT 5 O'CLOCK ? Having au lieu de doing, mais sans étourderie !!!

La note n'a pas mis à mal ma moyenne, alors je ne t'en tiendrai pas rigueur hihihihihi

Réponse: Prétérit Be +Ving (1) de jardin62, postée le 21-04-2005 à 13:43:59 (S | E)

- Bon, je vais rester en vie!

- Il faut se dire que celui qui a 'osé' faire le test et que je me garderais de nommer n'a le droit qu'à 1 correction et 1 seule à dicter au générateur de test. Ce qui veut dire que si le générateur ne voit pas 'Aunt Alice', il compte faux: il n'est pas capable de faire la différence. Si, on oubliait la majuscule mise dans la correction à Aunt (même si après tout il ne devrait pas y en avoir), il compte 're-faux!' C'est pour cela que c'est stressant et et et

N°9: Oui, post-sriptum, si ce n'était pas un exo fait avec le générateur de test tu aurais évidemment donné une réponse correcte, à un détail près pour chipoter: comme c'est toi qui poses la question avant que je ne réponde, il est normal que tu précises le nom de la personne dont tu parles, pour que je puisse savoir de qui il s'agit et que je ne me mettes pas à te parler de 'Aunt Dorothee'/ De la même façon le générateur ne connaît qu'une réponse juste, celle où il y a 'in 1942'. C'est pour cela que la consigne précédant le test dit de bien reprendre les phrases.

grabuge : C'est le même problème que pour post-sriptum: le verbe mis ( ) était 'having tea', donc toi le 'questionneur' tu devais faire l'ignorante au sujet de l'activité et utiliser 'doing' , pour pouvoir me demander 'qu'est-ce que tu étais en train de 'faire'.

, marie. Tu as dû faire un commentaire alors?
