連詞because用法詳解
1. 表示原因,語(yǔ)氣較強(qiáng),可用來(lái)回答 why 提出的問(wèn)題。如:
A:Why do you love her? 你為什么愛(ài)她?
B:Because she is kind. 因?yàn)楹苌屏肌?/p>
2. because 除經(jīng)常用于引導(dǎo)原因狀語(yǔ)從句外,還可引出表語(yǔ)從句或用于強(qiáng)調(diào)句等。如:
It is because you’re eating too much. 那是因?yàn)槟愠缘锰嗔恕?/p>
It was because I wanted to buy a dictionary that I went to town yesterday.
我昨天是由于想買本字典而進(jìn)城的。
3. 漢語(yǔ)說(shuō)“因?yàn)?hellip;…所以……”,但英語(yǔ)卻不能用 because…so…這樣的結(jié)構(gòu)。如:
因?yàn)槲也×税肽辏园压ぷ鱽G了。
誤:Because I was ill for six months, so I lost my job.
正:Because I was ill for six months, I lost my job.
正:I was ill for six months, so I lost my job.
4. 漢語(yǔ)說(shuō)“之所以……是因?yàn)?hellip;…”,英語(yǔ)可以類似以下這樣的句型(用that比用 because普通)。如:
The reason (why) I’m late is that [because] I missed the bus.
我遲到的原因是因?yàn)槲覜](méi)有趕上公共汽車。
傳統(tǒng)語(yǔ)法認(rèn)為這類句型不能用 because, 但在現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)中用because 的情形已很普遍。
5. 在not…because…這一結(jié)構(gòu)中,not 有時(shí)否定主句,有時(shí)否定從句,具體視語(yǔ)境而定。一般說(shuō)來(lái),若 not
否定主句,最好在because 之前用逗號(hào),否則會(huì)引起歧義,如下句在沒(méi)有特定上下文時(shí)就有兩種解釋:
I didn’t go because I was afraid.
這個(gè)句子既可理解為“我沒(méi)有去是因?yàn)榕?rdquo;,也可理解為“我不是因?yàn)榕虏湃?rdquo;。但是,如果because
之前有副詞just修飾,一般認(rèn)為not是否定從句而不是主句。如:
You shouldn’t get angry just because some people speak ill of you. 你不要因?yàn)橛腥苏f(shuō)你壞話而生氣。
6. 有時(shí)可引導(dǎo)一個(gè)句子作主語(yǔ),此時(shí)通常采用just because這樣的形式,并且主句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞通常(當(dāng)然不是
一定)為mean。如:
Just because you speak English doesn’t mean you can teach it. 你會(huì)說(shuō)英語(yǔ)并不意味著你能教英語(yǔ)。
Just because you’re old doesn’t mean you have to be idle.
只是因?yàn)槟隳昙o(jì)大了,這并不意味著你就應(yīng)該懶散不活動(dòng)。
Because you have words with your wife is no reason to smash up things.
你和你的妻子吵架并不能成為摔東西的理由。
7. 用于構(gòu)成復(fù)合介詞because of,其后可接名詞、代詞、 動(dòng)名詞、what 從句(但不能是that從句或沒(méi)有引
導(dǎo)詞的從句)等。如:
He is here because of you (that). 他為你(那事)而來(lái)這里。
We said nothing about it, because of his wife’s being there. 因?yàn)樗拮釉谀莾,我們?duì)此只字未提。
He left the company because of what the boss said at the meeting.
他離開(kāi)了這家公司,是因?yàn)槔习逶跁?huì)上講的話。
8. because of通常用來(lái)引導(dǎo)狀語(yǔ),而用于不引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)(引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)時(shí)可用 due to)。如:
誤:His absence is because of the rain.
正:His absence is due to the rain. 他因雨未來(lái)。
但是,若主語(yǔ)是代詞(不是名詞),則它引出的短語(yǔ)也可用作表語(yǔ)。如:
It is because of hard work. 那是因?yàn)樾量喙ぷ鞯脑颉?/p>
It will be because of money. 那將都是因?yàn)殄X的原因。
