4 past simple or past continuous? Now look at these two sentences: A. She looked away when I spoke to her. B. She was looking away when I spoke to her. In which one, A or B, do we get the idea that perhaps she was angry with me?

Which action seems quicker? Looked away.

12 when or while? We often use while instead of when with the past continuous because it stresses that the action is longer. However, it is not wrong to use when in sentences like this. When I was having a shower. (is possible) While I was having a shower. (is maybe better)
