原因和让步状语从句

一、原因状语从句

用从句来表示主句行为或事件发生的原因，这个从句就是原因状语从句。

常用引导词：because, since, as, for

1、because表示人们不知道的直接的原因或理由，着重点在从句；

通常用于回答why引出的疑问句，语气最强；

除特别强调外，该从句一般位于主句后面；

不能与so连用但是可以与so进行同义句转换。

I didn’t go aboard with her because I couldn’t afford it.我没有和她一起出国是因为费用太高。

2、as和since引导的原因状语从句多表示大家众所周知的理由，从句多位于主句之前，since译为“既然”。如：

As I didn’t know the way, I asked a policeman. 我不认识路，因而问警察。

Since traveling by air is much faster, they decided to take a plane. 既然乘飞机旅行快得多，他们就决定坐飞机。

3、for表示的理由是附加的或推断的，并非此原因，通常与主句用逗号隔开，不位于句首，如：

He must be not at home, for the telephone isn’t answered.

3. ________ all the seats were taken, I had to stand.

4. He must be at work, ________ the light in his office is still on.

5. Lily didn’t go to school ________ she was ill.

二、让步状语从句

常用引导词：although, though “尽管虽然”

1、两者通常可互换，在口语中，though较为常见。

Although Kevin is alone, he is very happy at first. 尽管凯文独自一人（在家），但他刚开始还是挺高兴的。

He went on fighting, though he was wounded. 尽管受了伤，他还是继续战斗。

2、although/though和but不能用在同一个句子中；如：

I do not often make dinner, but I can cook. 我不经常做饭，但是我会做。

Although I do not often make dinner, I can cook. 虽然我不经常做饭，但是我会做。

3、though可用作副词，放在句尾。

It’s hard work, I enjoy it, though. 这是件艰难的工作，可是我还是喜欢它。

I’ve a bit of headache. It’s nothing much, though. 我有一点头痛，不过并不厉害。

He said he would come, he didn’t, though. 他说他要来，可是他并没有来。
