Preposition 随着 (along with, as)
复习：随着 + NP的发展，结果句 (as X develops, Y happens) — 已经学过的基础结构。
HSK5深化用法：
1. 随着…而… — 更书面/紧凑的结构，把随着从句与结果动词直接用'而'连接，不用逗号重复主语：他的收入随着经验的积累而不断提高。
2. 随着 + 抽象名词化短语：随着…的普及 (becoming widespread)、…的加剧 (worsening/intensifying)、…的提高 (improving) — 名词化短语要根据搭配选择合适的动词。
3. 随着 vs 由于：随着 = 并行的持续变化过程；由于 = 单一、明确的原因。描述一个持续演变的社会/科技趋势时，随着比由于更自然。
