《 Unit 5 Art world》语法解析

because 的用法

She's my herobecauseshe's one of the best table tennis players in the world,and I love playing table tennis.她是我的英雄,因为她是世界上最好的乒乓球运动员之一,而且我喜爱打丘兵球。

(1)句中because是连词,用来引导原因状语从句。because引导的原因状语从句通常放在主句之后,若需强调则放在主句之前。如:

I did it because they asked me to do it!

我做这件事是因为他们让我做!

Because I was ill,I didn't go to school yesterday.

因为病了,所以昨天我没去上学。

(2)because通常用来回答why提出的问题。如:

— Why didn' t you go to see the film?

—— 你为什么没去看这部电影?

— Because I have seen it.

—— 因为我看过了。

(3)表示“……的原因是……”时,一般要用句型“The reason why…is that…”。如:

The reason why he can't come is that he is tired.

他不能来是因为他累了。

(4)汉语习惯上说“因为……所以……”,但在英语中同一句子里却不能将because与so连用。如:

因为下雨,所以我们待在家里。

[正] Because it was raining,we stayed at home.

[正] It was raining,so we stayed at home.

[误] Because it was raining. so we stayed at home.

since和as引导的原因状语从句

我们也可以用since和as引导原因状语从句。如:

Since you are free,you'd better tidy your bedroom.既然你有空,你最好把卧室整理一下。

As you were not there,I left a message.因为你不在那里,所以我留了个信儿。

注意: 和because相比,since和as的语气稍弱。

since意思是“既然;由于,因为”,表示已知的、显然的理由,较正式,多位于句首。如:

Since it is late,I shall go home right now. (由于)时间不早了,我得马上回家。

as和since的用法大体相同,表示附带说明的“双方已知的原因”。如:

As it is raining,you'd better take a taxi.既然在下雨,你最好乘出租车。
