XIII. Put the verbs in brackets into Past Simple or Past Continuous. 1. Peter was talking (talk) on the phone when I went to his office. 2. Nick sold (sell) his car in 2022.

Решение:

Используем Past Continuous для длительного действия, которое было прервано другим действием в Past Simple:

1. Peter was talking (talk) on the phone when I went to his office. (Действие 'was talking' происходило, когда другое действие 'went' прервало его).
2. Nick sold (sell) his car in 2022. (Используем Past Simple для завершенного действия в определенное время в прошлом).

Ответ: 1. was talking; 2. sold.
