帮我看下是用happened好,还是用started好

WHY?
回答者： elvislkm !你难道没有看见句子当中的when么?!

OK~我把这句话的中文发一下好了~

CHINESE:他们正在上课时,地震发生了.

当然用started,前面用They were having a lesson这是典型的过去进行时的例子啊,当地震发生的那瞬间他们正在上课,用started更形象生动啊.

用happened好...

因为started"开始"是一瞬间的事...

你前面都说了"They were having a lesson"=>"上课中"是一段时间...我们只会

说"earthquake"happened=>地震正在发生=>是一段时间

started=>地震开始中=>会变得很怪~!!!

happened ，happen表示sth突然发生
