Grammar Points
A、B、C— Listing with enumeration commaHSK 2
Chinese often uses the punctuation “、” to list parallel nouns or short phrases (especially in menus, headlines or item lists) without adding a conjunction. Each unit is equally important and the whole string describes several things at once.
"账号设置、我的关注、我的收藏、申请的报道、退出登录。"
在…完成…后…— After clause with 在…后HSK 4
The structure “在…后” (often expanded to “在…完成…后”) indicates that the action in the main clause happens after the event described in the first clause is finished.
"中国人民政治协商会议第十四届全国委员会第四次会议在圆满完成各项议程后闭幕。"
被 + Agent + Verb— Passive “被” structureHSK 4

"挡住豆包的那堵墙，被“龙虾”推倒了。"
让 + Person + Verb— Causative “让”HSK 3
