Переведем первое предложение: "Я приехал назад домой, потому что забыл свои очки"."As" используется в этом предложение, как "because", но не как "when", а это значит, что первое утверждение - false.

Второе утверждение переводится как: "После слова 'when' мы используем только past simple". Это утверждение тоже false, поскольку в предложении f) мы имеем past perfect.

Третье переводится как: "После 'while' мы обычно используем past continuous". И оно - true.

Ответ: 1-false, 2-false, 3-true.
