原因状语从句 知识点

指在句中用来说明主句原因的从句。
引导原因状语从句的从属连词有because(因为), as(由于), since(既然), now(that)(既然), when(既然), seeing (that) (由于,鉴于), considering (that)(考虑到), for(为), given (that) (考虑到)等。
【注】除以上提到的大家比较熟悉的引导原因状语从句的从属连词外,when有时也可引导原因状语从句(when表示“既然”)
I won't tell you when you won't listen. 既然你不想听,那我就不告诉你了。

because不能与so连用
汉语习惯上说“因为…所以…”,但英语习惯上却不能将 so与because 连用:
因为下雨,所以我们得呆在家里。
正:Because it was raining, we stayed at home. / It was raining, so we stayed at home.

because从句与 because of 短语的转换
Because引导的原因状语从句有时可与because of 短语转换,because of后加的原因可以为好或坏
但最正规的还是because
He can't come because he is ill. / He can't come because of his illness.
他因病不能来。

比较:because, since, as和 for的区别:
(1)because引导的原因状语从句一般放于主句的后面,because从句位于句首时要用逗号分开,放在句末时,可不用逗号分开。
because表示直接原因, 语气最强, 最适合回答why引导的疑问句。
because of 也表示原因,但它后面不接从句,只能接名词,代词或动名词。
注意:because 和so 不可同时出现在一个句子里。
(2)since引导的原因状语从句一般放于主句之前表示已知的、 显然的理由(通常被翻译成“既然”= now that ), 较为正式, 语气比because弱。
(3)as 引导原因状语从句时表示附带说明的“双方已知的原因”,含有对比说明的意味,语气比since弱, 较为正式, 位置较为灵活(常放于主句之前)。
(4)for引导的是并列句表示原因但并不说明主句行为发生的直接原因, 只提供一些辅助性的补充说明, for引导的并列句只能放于主句之后并且必须用逗号将其与主句隔开。
