This is the basic past tense. We use it whenever we want to talk about the past and we don't have any special situation that means we should use the past perfect, present perfect or past continuous.
Finished actions, states or habits in the past.
1: We use it with finished actions, states or habits in the past when we have a finished time word (yesterday, last week, at 2 o'clock, in 2003).
I went to the cinema yesterday.
We spent a lot of time in Japan in 2007.
2: We use it with finished actions, states or habits in the past when we know from general knowledge that the time period has finished. This includes when the person we are talking about is dead.

The Vikings invaded Britain.
3: We use it with finished actions, states or habits in the past that we have introduced with the present perfect or another tense. This is sometimes called 'details of news'.
I've hurt my leg. I fell off a ladder when I was painting my bedroom.
I've been on holiday. I went to Spain and Portugal.
4: For stories or lists of events, we often use the past simple for the actions in the story and the past continuous for the background.
He went to a cafeé. People were chatting and music was playing. He sat down and ordered a coffee.
Unreal or imaginary things in the present or future.
5: We use the past simple to talk about things that are not real in the present or future. So we use it with the second conditional and after words like 'wish'.

部分内容来自爱迪生自己编写的30面语法学习资料：语法终结者
我自己也是一个英语学习者和英语教学者，我深知国内孩子在背诵语法概念和进行错题订正上花了太多时间和精力，因此我结合很多国外的语法学习网站，对内容进行精简，让孩子先理解语法使用场景，然后把语法变成最近几周持续训练的一种习惯，这样孩子不仅理解语法而且还可以把语法变成自己熟练的一种技能。学会语法靠的不是做题，而是先理解，再进行阶段性每天运用。
需要的朋友可以主动找爱迪生要，好东西免费，帮助更多孩子省力，是我的快乐。
我是爱迪生，一个阅读探险家，一个古典和流行乐迷，一个写作探险家，一个独立英语老师。感谢每一个你的阅读，感谢每一个你的关注。隔空相遇也是缘分，愿我们的每次遇见都是美好。学习是为了更好的生活和遇见更好的自我。
