In + __ing has largely the same connotations (ongoing process, involvement of subject) as plain old "__ing", as described in the video. E.g., if a company falls behind in paying certain debts, then the company (= subject) is directly involved in the ongoing process of paying the debts.

but后面本来是应该加句子的，但是在主语相同的情况下可以省略主语

the comma is sometimes employed when “but” is used to connect units smaller than clauses, if those units are so long that the sentence becomes difficult to read without the comma. for instance: James tried to sneak back into the house at 5 a.m. without waking his parents, but climbed through a window directly into the room where his father was already getting dressed.

paying可以做现在分词当名词用，也可以做现在分词，这里，如果paying后面跟的是名词，那么基本应该是做现在分词用，原型是一个动宾结构。所以，前面不需要its来限定。

but 转折语义更强 前面的while it then while表示同时发生 这里出现 then 不好 。 这里的but 开始我觉得是后面缺少主语的，但是没有想到这里可以两个谓语平行 became 和proved 平行。 falling months 作为修饰语修饰前面的 the healthy care

while表示contradiction时不太好，因为容易产生两件事情同时发生的歧义。而but后面的it是可以省略的。【另外，两句句子主语一样主语的it可以省略，后面也是谓语动词，前面也是谓语动词，所以是平行的。】
