把...当...— treat X as YHSK 4
把-construction places the object before the verb and indicates that someone treats or handles something in a certain way. The structure is 把 + object + verb + complement, often followed by 当 + noun/phrase to show how it is perceived.
"舅妈把这事当笑料讲给我们听。"
越...越...— the more... the more...HSK 3
This comparative structure links two clauses to show that one thing changes in the same direction as another. 越 A 越 B means “the more A, the more B.”
"一开始是散步，后来越走越快，就变成了很慢很慢的跑步。"
连...都...— even...HSK 3
连 + X + 都 + Verb/Phrase adds emphasis by showing that even an unexpected or extreme example is included. It’s often used to stress completeness or surprise.
"这项运动最吸引我的地方是便捷，无需任何“前戏”，连衣服鞋子都不用换，站在瑜伽垫上就能跑。"
"可惜没多少人喜欢，连老公都不想来试试。"
如果...就...— if ... then ...HSK 3
如果 introduces a condition and 就 (optional) marks the result. It’s used to state hypothetical or real conditions and their outcomes.
"所以，如果把时间拉长，超慢跑有比大爆汗更好的燃脂效果。"
...就...— quick/inevitable result with 就HSK 2
The particle 就 (often after a time expression) highlights that something happens quickly, easily, or inevitably after the previous action. It is commonly used after time words or measures.
"把所有的心事想一遍，起码半小时就过去了。"
"边看电视边跑，或者边听播客边跑，一小时很快就过去了。"
