Which of the following sentences does not properly use a subordinating conjunction?
The only one that jumps out at me is B. Although C is more usually "what goes around, comes around" the reverse says exactly the same thing; and if D might be more properly stated as, He acts as if he were going to cry, as it is, the meaning is the same. But to say, You stay put UNLESS I call for you implies that I may stay put indefinitely or forever. I'd be a lot more comfortable with UNTIL.
How do I use conjunction in a sentence properly?
You can download a handout at Commas Made Simple that will show you how to use conjunctions. Comma Rule 1 deals with subordinating conjunctions. Comma Rule 2 deals with coordinating conjunctions. There are only seven of them - the FANBOYS words (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so).Comma Rule 3 shows you how to write sentences with interrupters. Those sentences don’t involve conjunctions - but they’re handy to know!

How does one properly use since as a conjunction?
“Since” can take several parts of speech. As a conjunction it connects two clauses that are related or are dependent in TIME, or in REASON/CAUSE. Where it is used to introduce reason, “since” usually comes at the beginning of the sentence:Since she had no jacket, she was starting to feel cold.Since he could speak Spanish, he volunteered to help.Since he had not eaten all day, he began to feel hungry.When “since” is used to introduce a time-sequence, the verb in the MAIN clause is often in the past perfect (continuous) tense, and “since” is usually between the two clauses. It is used to establish a point in time when the main action started:Over 240 years have passed since homeopathy was ‘invented’.I have written daily since you left the country.The flood waters have been rising steadily since the dam collapsed at noon.It has been fifty years since microwave ovens were first introduced.
