Because及for的用法不同之处.doc

Because和for的用法不同之处 作为原因状语，because-分句位置灵活，而for-分句只可在主句之后 The doctor looks tired and sleepy because he sat up all night with the patient. The doctor looks tired and sleepy, for he sat up all night with the patient. 由because引导的原因状语分句可以单独用来回答why-问句，而for-分句不行 ---Why does the doctor look so tired and sleepy? ---Because he sat up all night with the patient. 作为原因状语，because-分句可在because前带否定词或其他修饰语，还可带某些并列连词，而for-分句不可以 The doctor looks tired and sleepy not because he isn’t feeling well, but because he sat up all night with the patient. 作为原因状语，because-分句可作分裂句中心成分，而for-分句不行 It is because he sat up all night with the patient that the doctor looks tired and sleepy. 连词for可以引导一个句子，为上文陈述的情况说明原因或提供理由，而because-分句通常引导从属分句，除用以回答why-问句外不单独出现 When I saw her in the river, I was frightened. For at that point the currents were dangerous. 在because，since，as这三个从属连词中，以because语势最强，since次之，as又次之。Because通常表示“新信息”，即一种未知的原因，而since/as则表示已知原因。由于since/as分句通常表示已知原因，所以常常出现在句首，这也是它们与for-分句用法上不同的地方。 Though和although同义，在一般情况下可以互换。但although比though语气强烈，常用以强调让步概念 He insisted on doing it although I wanted him not to. 当让步分句指一种臆想的情况时，通常用though Though all the world were against me, I should still hold to my opinion. Though everybody desert you, I will not. 引导某些让步状语分句通常也只能用though Difficult though the task was, they managed to complete it in time. Clever though he was, he failed the exam. He’s welcome to come with us, ______ it won’t be too much of a strain for him to walk so far. A, provided B. as if C. unless D. since 有些动词ing或ed形式可以用做连词，引导原因、条件或让步状语分句，如seeing that（鉴于，由于），considering that，providing that，provided that（假如，以…为条件），supposing that（假如），given that（以…为条件），granted， granting that（假使），在许多情况下，that是不出现的。 一些常见缩略语 2G 2nd Generation Mobile Communications System 第二代移动通信系统3G，3GMS 3rd Generation Mobile Communications System 第三代移动通信系统3GPP 3rd Generation Partnership Project 第三代合作组织 AAA Authentication, Authorization, Accounting 鉴权、授权、计费ANSI American National Standard Institute 美国国家标准组织ASCII American Standar
