MCQ:
8 So, ____ with the Danish advance, Alfred did not risk open battle.

The answer is
我的问题：
on 是否可以理解为 as soon as ?
如是，则可以写成如下：
So, as soon as Alfred was faced with the Danish advance, he did not risk open battle.
Q2：
Original text:
They were not fighting men.
5 Minstrels were not men ____ in battle.
who fight to fight fighting they fight
我觉得b, c 都是正确的答案，但教程给的答案是（a)
我觉得若是的话，则需要修改成 who fought，由于主句是一般过去时态，需要维持时态相同。
所以，我不觉得是正确的。
不了解，我的理解是不是正确。
谢谢！
Q1，三个选项都不适合。这里假如要提花过去分词短语作状语，就应该是 When he was faced with, 即when引导的时间状语从句，而不是 on being faced. 不可以用as soon as 引导时间状语从句，如此语义是不适当的。
Q2. 定语从句并不受时态一致的限制。fighting men 意为作战职员，= men who fight。这里用一般目前时是对fighting men的讲解，而不是说正在作战的职员或将要作战的职员，fight与时间无关。所以用一般目前时是没问题的。用一般过去时反而不适合。
