"He was tired because he was studying so hard."
Hello, everyone:
He was tired because he was studying so hard.
He was tired because he had been studying so hard.
May I ask what their difference is? I think both of them are almost the same, but I don't know what their difference is. Could you tell me? Thank you!!
