Explanation:
In sentene 1.
We use having +pp ( past participle) for the first action when one action occurs before another. Ex: Having eaten her food, she went home.
Sentence 2: -
The word "unless" is a conjunction that means "except if." Except in cases where it is a main clause (mc), the clause that comes next is a subordinate clause (sc).
We use a comma when the word unless appears before the main clause, like in sentence 2.
Sentence 3: -
In this sentence 'none' used at the beginning of the sentence is a pronoun which means 'not anyone'.
Sentence 4: -
If used properly, a "-ing" word at the beginning of a phrase is acceptable. To avoid overusing the word "I," writers frequently utilise "-ing" words, also referred to as gerunds.
It's also crucial to remember that a "-ing" phrase should only be used when the activity it describes occurs simultaneously with that of the sentence's main clause. Otherwise, you're left with a useless product.
Sentence 5: -
In this sentence we have replaced 'too' by 'so...that' but a negative verb would be added in the that-clause.
Sentence 6: -
If the adverb too is placed after an adjective + to infinitive, the sentence is expanded into two clauses, the first of which contains so and the second of which contains that. If the statement that contains too...to is positive, the sentence that contains so...that will be negative. In the last sentence, so...that is replaced by too...that.
Since the sentence with so...that has that-clause in negative, when it is converted to too...that, the that-clause will be positive.
