Choose the past simple or past continuous
1. What were you doing when I called you last night ?
past continuous = action passé en train de se faire quand une action passée courte interrompt = past simple
5. Yesterday I went to the library, next I had a swim, later I met Julie for a coffee.
yesterday = action passée terminée = past simple

RAPPEL
past simple = pour des actions passées terminées (yesterday, last week etc...)
past continuous = pour des actions passées qui étaient en cours, en traine de >...
Quand on a les 2 dans une même phrase, l'action au past simple interrompt celle au past continuous.
