The Structure 为了... "in order to"

The conjunction …的时候
The conjunction ..的时候is an equivalent to English “when…” or “the time when…”. The difference between
Chinese ..的时候 and English “when” or “the time when…” is that in Chinese the conjunction is AFTER
the clause, while in English the conjunction is BEFORE the clause. For example:
我吃饭的时候 when I eat
clause conjunction conjunction clause
去年他回台湾 的时候 when he returned to Taiwan last year
clause conjunction means conjuction clause
Now let’s look at some sentences with a time clause:
我吃饭的时候 ,(我)不看电视。 When I eat, I don’t watch TV.
她来的时候,我不在。 I wasn’t in, when she came.
The conjunction 又…又…
又…又…means “both…and…” in English. The pattern 又 + adj/verb 又 + adj/verb is used to indicate two
concurrent situations or actions. For example:
她的房间 又 大 又 乾净。 Her room is both big and clean.
adj adj
大家 又 唱 又 跳。 Everyone is both singing and dancing.
verb verb
Points of merits:
1.When two adjectives are used in this way, they must be unidirectional, that is either complimentary
or pejorative. For example:
又快又好 fast and good 又忙又累 busy and tiring
2.When two verbs are used in this way, they must be concurrent:
又说又笑 speak and laugh 又吃又喝 eat and drink
