欣赏英语短文 复习状语从句 【Passage I】 This summer has been extremely hot. eq \o\ac(○,1)In order that we can keep cool, we may immediately think of wearing short clothing. eq \o\ac(○,2)While we are doing all that we can do to make ourselves comfortable during the heat of the summer, let’s not forget that our pets have to deal with the climate change, too. According to Terrence Campbell, pet dogs should have their hair cut low to beat the summer heat. “We cut the hair low eq \o\ac(○,3)because the weather is too hot,” Campbell said. “It can sometimes take a long time eq \o\ac(○,4)as some customers take in dogs with matted (缠结的) fur.” 『语法解读』 eq \o\ac(○,1) in order that在此处引导一个目的状语从句，表示“为了……”，它引导的从句可以放在主句之后，也可以放在主句之前。而so that引导目的状语从句则通常放在主句的后面。如： She phoned her parents to tell them that she would go back late, so that they would not worry about her. In order that her parents would not worry about her, she phoned to tell them that she would go back late. [拓展] in case (that)和for fear that也可以引导目的状语从句，表示“以免；以防”。 eq \o\ac(○,2) while在此处引导了一个时间状语从句，表示“当……的时候”，它引导的从句中的谓语动词必须是可延续性的，通常是正在进行中的动作。当主句主语与从句主语一致时，可省去从句中出现的主语，而把谓语动词改为现在分词形式。如： He looked at the menu while he waited for his friends in the restaurant. = He looked at the menu while waiting for his friends in the restaurant. 他在那家餐厅等他的朋友们的时候，看了菜单。 eq \o\ac(○,3)和 eq \o\ac(○,4) because和as在上文中都是引导原因状语从句，表示“因为”，它们不能与 so连用。如： He couldn’t have seen me, because I was not there. 他不可能见到我，因为我不在那儿。 As she didn’t have enough money left, she didn’t buy the book. 由于她剩下的钱不够了，她没有买那本书。 [拓展] 原因状语从句还可以由for, since, now (that), considering that, seeing that等引导，但是because所表示的语气最为强烈。
