SIMPLE PAST

Subject-verb(ed) or irregular verb- complement

Afirmative/Interrogative/Negative
You called Paola. /Did you call Paola? /You did not call Paola.

• Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past. Sometimes, the speaker may not actually mention the specific time, but they do have one specific time in mind.
  Examples:
  I saw a movie yesterday.
  I didn't see a play yesterday

• We use the Simple Past to list a series of completed actions in the past. These actions happen 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on.
  Examples:
  I finished work, walked to the beach, and found a nice place to swim.
  He arrived from the airport at 8:00, checked into the hotel at 9:00, and met the others at 10:00.

• The Simple Past can be used with a duration which starts and stops in the past. A duration is a longer action often indicated by expressions such as: for two years, for five minutes, all day, all year, etc.
  Examples:
  I lived in Brazil for two years.
  Shauna studied Japanese for five years.

• The Simple Past can also be used to describe a habit which stopped in the past. It can have the same meaning as "used to." To make it clear that we are talking about a habit, we often add expressions such as: always, often, usually, never, when I was a child, when I was younger, etc.
  Examples:
  I studied French when I was a child.
  He played the violin.

PAST TENSES

PAST PROGRESSIVE- CONTINUOUS

subject + was/were + VERB(present) >ing

Affirmative /Negative /Interrogative

I was going /I was not going /Was I going ?

• Use the Past Continuous to indicate that a longer action in the past was interrupted. The interruption is usually a shorter action in the Simple Past. Remember this can be a real interruption or just an interruption in time.
  Examples:
  I was watching TV when she called.
  When the phone rang, she was writing a letter.

• The Past Continuous is interrupted by a shorter action in the Simple Past. However, you can also use a specific time as an interruption.
  Examples:
  Last night at 6 PM, I was eating dinner.
  At midnight, we were still driving through the desert.

• When you use the Past Continuous with two actions in the same sentence, it expresses the idea that both actions were happening at the same time. The actions are parallel.
  Examples:
  I was studying while he was making dinner.
  While Ellen was reading, Tim was watching television.

• The Past Continuous with words such as "always" or "constantly" expresses the idea that something irritating or shocking often happened in the past. The concept is very similar to the expression "used to" but with negative emotion. Remember to put the words "always" or "constantly" between "be" and "verb+ing."
  Examples:
  She was always coming to class late.
  He was constantly talking. He annoyed everyone.

Sumary:

The principal performance is Andy Dusfresne, who was sentenced by two life imprisonment for killing his wife and her lover. Although he says be innocent, He is carried to Shawshank prision.

In this prision, Andy becomes a man who puts his values overall. He is a worship man so he likes read and he collects posters and photos.

The Shawshank prisoners are binded to work hard as caulking a factory. Doing this work, Andy befriends of a guardian, Byron. At first the guardian fight against Andy, but he told him that he could help him with his business.

Byron protects Andy but he wants to run away.

Pesonal opinion:

Sometimes we do not think about the prision life. The life is a challenge for this people. There are innocent and guilty men and always survive is hard.

The Guardians take advantage of their authority for the purpose of hurt the prisioners.

You must habituate to swap the stile life, for instance the food, the clothes and your personality.
