Explicación:

algunos apuntes:

En el past continous se usa el "was" para pronombres: I (yo), She (ella), He (él), It (eso); se usa el "were" para pronombres: We (nosotros), They (Ellos), You (Tú/Ustedes)

En estos ejercicios, encontramos que una acción se está realizando cuando de repente otra apareció, como por ejemplo: I was studying when he phone me. (Estuve estudiando cuando él me llamó)
