原因、目的和结果状语从句
一、原因状语从句
He failed the exam because he was too careless.
Many people were dying because they did not get to hospital quickly enough.
如果从句表示的是主句行为的原因,就构成原因状语从句,常由because引导。
Since everybody is here, let’s begin our meeting.
Since everyone is in a hurry, let’s make a long story short.
since也可以用来引导原因状语从句,表示显然
的或已为人所知的理由,常译为“因为,既然”。
目的状语从句有一个特点,从句中一般都含有表示可能性的词语,比如can,could,will, would等。
如果从句表示的是主句行为的目的,该从句就是目的状语从句,常由so that引导。
I got up early so that I could get to school on time.
Mulan dressed like a man so that she could join the army.
二、目的状语从句
三、结果状语从句
He worked too hard, so he fell ill again.
There were few doctors, so he had to work very hard on his own.
本模块中的结果状语从句是由so,so that引导的。表示“由于某个行为而导致的结果”。
