grammar（ⅱ）原因狀語(yǔ)從句
一. 引導(dǎo)原因狀語(yǔ)從句的連詞主要有because， as ， since， now that等。
1. because 所表示的原因有強(qiáng)烈的因果關(guān)系。 從句放在主句后。 回答why 提出的問(wèn)題時(shí)，一定要用because。
e.g.
i do it because i like it.
我們做這件事是因?yàn)槲蚁矚g。
-------- why didn’t you come to the party yesterday？
-------- because i attended an important meeting.
-----你昨晚為什么沒(méi)來(lái)參加晚會(huì)？
------- 因?yàn)槲覅⒓恿艘粋�(gè)重要會(huì)議。
2. since 一般表示對(duì)方已知的，無(wú)需加以說(shuō)明的既成事實(shí)的理由，全句中心在主句，語(yǔ)氣比because弱，常譯為“既然”。 now that 與 since 意思。接近，表示“既然，鑒于”。since，now that 引導(dǎo)的從句常放在句首。
e.g.
since/now that you are grown up, you should not rely on your parents.
既然你長(zhǎng)大了，就不應(yīng)該依靠父母。
since/ now that a lot of people can make mistakes in life, you’d better give him a chance.
既然很多人都會(huì)在生活中犯錯(cuò)誤，你最好給他一次機(jī)會(huì)。
3. as 表示十分明顯的原因。一般說(shuō)明因果關(guān)系，著重點(diǎn)在主句。語(yǔ)氣比because， since弱，常譯為“由于”， as引導(dǎo)的從句常放在句首。
e.g.
as it is snowing， we shall not go to the park。
由于正在下雪，我們不去公園了。
4. for： “因?yàn)椤保皇菑膶龠B詞，而是并列連詞。不是用來(lái)說(shuō)明，補(bǔ)充解釋或表示一種推理，所以for 引導(dǎo)的句子一般不放在句首。
e.g.
we must start early, for we have a long way to .
我們得早點(diǎn)出發(fā)，因?yàn)槲覀冇泻荛L(zhǎng)一段路要走。
he must have done it by himself, for there was no one else in the room.
他肯定是自己做完的，因?yàn)榉块g里沒(méi)有其他人。
