三、语法:
表示因为的连词:
1. 并列连词for:
for作为连词所引导的原因分句往往放在句子后,不会出现在开头。For表示的原因往往是一个推断的结论的依据。
2. because,since与as引导的原因状语从句
1) because引导的原因状语从句
原因状语从句是指在复合句中表示主句动作发生原因的句子。
I did not go to school yesterday because I was ill.我昨天没去上学,因为我生病了。
Because it was raining,we had to stay at home.因为下雨我们只好待在家里。
A. because表示“因为”,表示动作发生的直接原因,语气很强,常用来回答why引导的疑问句。
--Why doesn’t he go with us?他为什么不跟我们一起去?
--Because he’s too tired today.因为他今天太累了。
B. 在一个英语句子中,so和because不能同时出现。

The scientist studies nature not because it is useful, but because he takes pleasure in it.
2) since和as引导的原因状语从句
相对于because而言,since和as的语气较弱。
since与as的用法大体相同,表示附带说明的“双方已知的原因”。由这两个词引导的原因状语从句通常位于句首。
Since it is late,I shall go home right now.(由于)时间不早了,我得马上回家了。
As it is raining, you’d better take a taxi.因为在下雨,你最好乘出租车。
当主句部分是表示建议的let’s, why not....,往往用since
Since everyone is here, why not start the meeting now?
