Now that we are developing new technology at such a high pace, the true challenge is to find new ways of using it.既然我们正高速地发展新技术，真正的挑战在于寻找应用它们的方法、途径。 now that是一个连词词组，作“既然(since)”解，连接一个表示原因的状语从句。在口语中这个that常可省略，而只用now连接从句，而now在从句中已失去“现在”的时间概念(从句中不一定要用现在时态)。 Now(that)you are well again，you can work with them. 既然你已经康复了，你就可以跟他们一起工作了。 Now(that)we are alone，we can speak freely. 既然没有别人了，我们就可以无拘无束地谈谈了。 ?对比思考 now that/because/since/as 四个词都可以用来引导原因状语从句。 (1)now that是一个连词词组，相当于since(既然)，引导原因状语从句，在口语中常省略that，而只用now引导从句，这时要特别注意，不能把now理解为“现在”。 Now that youve passed your test you can drive on your own. 既然你驾驶考试已合格，就可以独自开车了。 (2)because语气较强，表示直接原因；在回答why的问句时，必须用because。 The light went out because the oil was out. 灯熄了，因为没有油了。 (3)as/since语气较轻，表示明显的原因或已知的事实。 As it is too late，youd better stay here. 天太晚了，你最好留在这儿。 Since the town is far from here，you may go there by bus. 既然那座小镇离这儿很远，你可以乘公共汽车去。 (2009·江苏苏州实验中学)________Sun Yue has been selected into the L．A.
