the elephant came out of the jungle. The other animals were
relaxing in the shade of the trees, but the elephant moved very
quickly. She was looking for her baby, and she didn't notice the
hunter who was watching her through his binoculars. When the shot
rang out, she was running towards the river...".
 Para descrever uma ação incompleta que foi interrompida por outra
ação ou evento. Ex.: "I was having a beautiful dream when the alarm
clock rang".

day at the beach but I've decided to get my homework done instead".
 Junto ao termo "wonder", quando se deseja fazer um pedido muito
