When last we saw Anna, she had made a new friend.

我们上次见到安娜时,她交了一个新朋友。

And they had been talking about superheroes for a while when suddenly Anna became Lightning Bolt Lady!

他们谈论了一会儿超级英雄,突然安娜变成了闪电女神!

She tried to find her superpowers. But it did not go well.

她试图找到她的超能力。但进展并不顺利。

She can't fly, become invisible or create a force field.

她不能飞,不能隐身,也不能创造力场。

And she really cannot walk through walls. Ouch, Lightning Bolt Lady.

而且她真的不能穿墙。哎哟,闪电女神。

She had been walking into that wall for about 15 minutes when she had a great idea.

她一直试图走进那堵墙大约15分钟后,这时她有了一个好主意。

I just had a great idea!

我刚想到一个好主意!

I can't wait to hear this one! But first, let's talk about grammar.

I'm the announcer. So, I'm going to tell you about the past perfect continuous.

我是播音员。所以,我要给你们讲过去完成进行时。

We use this verb tense to show that an action started in the past and continued to another time or action in the past.

我们用过去完成进行时来表示一个动作开始于过去,并持续到过去的另一个时间或动作发生。

For example, I said, "She had been walking into that wall for about 15 minutes when she had a great idea."

例如,我说,“她一直试图走进那堵墙大约15分钟后,这时她有了一个好主意。”

Had been walking is the past perfect continuous of the verb walk.

Had been walking是动词walk的过去完成进行时。

It's had been plus the -ing form of the verb.

它已经加了动词的-ing形式。

You'll hear me use this verb tense a few more times today.

今天你们会听到我多次使用过去完成进行时。

Now, what am I forgetting? Oh right! Lightning Bolt Lady's great idea.

现在,我忘了什么?哦,对了!闪电女神的好主意。

So, maybe one of my superpowers is super-speed walking! Bye!

所以,也许我的超能力之一就是超高速行走!再见!

Check! Super-speed walking is definitely one of my superpowers.
