Answer : C

Subordinating Conjugation : It is a word or phrase used to link a dependent clause to an independent clause.

It is used to:

• show a cause-and-effect relationship between the dependent & subordinate (independent clause)
• to show a relationship involving a transition of time or place between two clause

Let's take a look at the usage of the subordinating conjugations in the options in relation to time:

• while : It is used to express an action in progress; sometimes this action is interrupted
• until : It is used to express the time when an event or action comes to an end
• as soon as : It is used to express that one event happens first and another happens immediately after
• before : It is used to express that one event precedes another

Here in the question, we understand that the speaker is expressing he/she is worried about James and thus tells the other perons to immedeitaely call him/her when she hears any news about him (James).

Therefore from among the options, 'as soon as' is the most suitable subordinating conjugation to complete the sentence.

Thus, the correct complete sentence is:

AS SOON AS you hear any news, call me.
