Past Simple or Past Continuous
Hi good people, I need some insight related to a key answer to a question I found on the internet related to simple past and past continuous. The question goes like this:
She .... (very fast) and she ... (not see) the tree.
The blanks should be filled with the correct form of either the two tenses I mentioned above and the key answer is (She was running very fast and didn't see the tree)
I am a bit confused since, say we refer to the rule of parallelism, shouldn't it be (she was running very fast and was not seeing the tree.) or (she ran very fast and didn't see the tree.)?
Another question is: Last weekend Susan ... (walk) and ... (break) her leg.
The key answer is: (Last weekend Susan was walking and broke her leg.)
Could someone please help me with some explanation with these 2 questions? Thanks in advance.

Re:Re:kurdish
Hey Charlotte! Both choni and bashi mean, how are you? However bashi is often used as, are you okay? I've also heard both of them be used following each other as in, Choni? Bashi? This is mostly used when someone got in trouble or in an accident. It shows that you're worried instead of just asking out of politeness. (I'm very bad at explaining, but i hope it helped)
