Kurgan · Answer 1

1) Some smiling men ... the piano.

a) were playing b) had played - Past Continuous, чтобы выразить продолжающееся действие в прошлом в определенный момент. Past Perfect не подходит, так как это время употребляется в смысле "действие, завершенное до определенного момента в прошлом";

2) We ... for about an hour when it started to rain.

a) were playing b) had been playing - Past Perfect Continuous, чтобы выразить действие, которое началось в прошлом перед каким то определенным моментом и продолжалось далее после достижения какого-либо момента в прошлом;

3) For long months she ... his secret.

a) had been keeping b) had kept - Past Perfect Continuous, чтобы выразить действие, которое началось в прошлом перед каким то определенным моментом и продолжалось далее после достижения какого-либо момента в прошлом;
