6. As soon as the man finished speaking, Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died.
这个人刚一说完，愚公就说在他死后他的家人会继续移山。
[点拨] (1) as soon as意为“一……就……”，强调两个动作几乎是连在一起的，后接从句。当主句是一般将来时时，as soon as引导的状语从句应用一般现在时。有时与单词possible相连形成as soon as possible，意为“尽快”。如：
As soon as he finishes his homework, he runs out of the class.
他一做完作业，就跑出了教室。
(2) finish意为“结束；完成”，后面接名词或动名词作宾语，即finish doing sth。
(3) continue意为“继续；持续”。表示继续做某事，其后既可接动名词也可接不定式，且意义相同。
