随着 (suízhe), "along with", or "followed by" can be used to express that two things are happening at once.
For example:
- 树枝 随着 风 不 停 地 摇动。
- 我 随着 女朋友 去 了 非洲。
- 我 随着 音乐 拍手。
随着 can also be used in the following structure to indicate that a change in A causes a respective change in B. In this case A is generally a trend, like development or rising prices.
The structure is:
随着 A + 的 + Verb, B + Verb
For example:
- 随着 经济 的 发展，人们 的 生活 越 来 越 好。
- 随着 石油 价格 的 升高，粮食 的 价格 涨 了 好 几 倍。
- 随着 年龄 的 增加，他 变 得 更加 成熟。
