    On the shore of the lake, twelve boats waited for them. Out of each boat rose a shadowy figure to take the hand of the princess who came to him and help her into the boat. I paused almost too long, trying to see the faces of the richly dressed men who were pushing the boats into the water...

    Grammatically speaking, in this case both "the boats waited for them" and "the boats were waiting for them" are correct, but maybe with slight differences. I would say in many contexts they are almost exchangeable; it often depends on what the author wishes to stress on. ! X# R! i- a$ T! N" B

    过去时表示动作已经完成。, Z- C' k$ Z6 y+ m1 b# F- H) |
    进行时是表示在语境中的时间段,动作正在持续进行,强调该动作持续存在。可以用于作为背景的次要事件,表示与主要事件一起发生。
