原因状语从句
一、原因状语从句的定义
原因状语从句是用来说明主句动作或状态发生原因的从句。它通常由从属连词引导,回答 why 的问题。
二、常用引导词及用法
1. because —— “因为”
语气最强,表示直接的、具体的因果关系。通常用来回答 why 的提问。可以放在主句之前或之后,但放在后面更常见。
He didn't come to school because he was ill. (他没来上学因为他病了。)
Because it was raining, we stayed at home. (因为下雨,我们待在家里。)
—Why are you late? —Because I missed the bus. (——你为什么迟到?——因为我错过了公交车。)
2. since —— “既然”
语气较弱,表示已知的、显而易见的原因。常翻译为“既然”,通常放在句首,强调已知事实。
Since everyone is here, let's begin the meeting. (既然大家都到了,我们开始开会吧。)
Since you are tired, you should have a rest. (既然你累了,就该休息一下。)
3. as —— “由于”
语气最弱,表示双方都知道的原因,或者不太重要的原因。常放在句首,也可放句中。
As it was late, we went home. (由于天晚了,我们回家了。)
As you are not ready, we'll wait. (既然你还没准备好,我们就等等。)
4. for —— “因为”(并列连词)
for 是并列连词,连接两个并列分句,表示对前面分句的补充说明或推断的理由。不能放在句首,前面通常有逗号。
He must be ill, for he looks pale. (他一定病了,因为他脸色苍白。——推断的理由)
I decided to stop and have lunch, for I was feeling hungry. (我决定停下来吃午饭,因为我感到饿了。)

汉语中常说“因为……所以……”,但英语中 because 和 so 只能用一个。
✅ Because it was raining, we stayed at home.
✅ It was raining, so we stayed at home.
❌ Because it was raining, so we stayed at home.
2. because 从句可以单独回答问题
—Why didn't you come? —Because I was busy.
3. for 是并列连词,不是从属连词
它连接两个并列分句,不能放在句首引导从句。
❌ For he was ill, he didn't go to work.
✅ He didn't go to work, for he was ill.
4. because of 后跟名词/名词短语(不是从句)
✅ He was late because of the traffic jam. (因为交通堵塞)
❌ He was late because of the traffic was heavy.
5. 其他表示原因的短语或连词
now that —— “既然”(表示新情况)
Now that everyone is here, let's start. (既然大家都到了,我们开始吧。)
seeing that / considering that —— “鉴于,考虑到”
Seeing that he is young, we should help him. (鉴于他年纪小,我们应该帮他。)
