After replacing the incorrect linking expressions in italics with a correct one, we have:
1. He felt much better after he had solved the problem.
2. The weeks went by and soon I started to feel better.
3. He put down his suitcase for a minute and then he picked it up again and walked on.
4. When I phoned my sister, she was having a shower.
5. When you get there, please phone and let me know.
6. I used my dictionary a lot before but now I try to guess what the words mean.
7. Once I got home, I found my friends had arrived.
8. While you were sleeping, something really exciting happened.
Keep in mind that more than one answer is possible for this question. All we must do is choose a linking word that does not sound wrong and does not change the meaning of the sentence.
To figure out what word to use, read the whole sentence and take the context into consideration.
For instance, in sentence 6, it does not make sense to use "later" with the context. The speaker is talking what he used to do before.
In some cases, the sentence structure will ask for a specific word.
For instance, "while" usually goes with the continuous clause (sleeping, having, etc.), whereas "when" goes with the simple past (phoned, happened, etc.)
