A question from sentence from my English textbook. The sentence goes like this: ......Because of global warming, Florida will disappear beneath the waves, as will much of the British Isles, the crowed Nile valley, and the low-lying areas of China, India , and Russia. I'm puzzled cause I have learnt that using "so will sth" or "so do I" inversion to indicate the identical situations, but I don't know why "as will sth..." is used here. Is "so" and "as" here interchangable?

What does "crumbled to decay" mean in this sentence? Isaac Newton will exist long after the dial--yes, and long after the sun itself--shall have crumbled to decay.

总是 和 一直 我知道它们有差别，但是我就是不知道怎么表达。

the differences among "standoffish", "aloof" and "indifferent"
