Step1. Presentation
We use because to introduce clauses of reason. Its tone is strong
I like listening to music because it makes me feel relaxed.
I like painting because I like all the different colours.
He loves the sounds of the rushing water and the blowing wind because, to him,
the best music comes from nature.
We often use because to answer why questions.

made some notes. Look at his notes and answer his questions. Use because to
introduce the reasons.

提醒学生注意：We never use the conjunction so in sentences with because.
Step3. Presentation
1. 教师告诉学生：Since and as are also used to give reasons for something.
Usually the reasons are already known. Their tone is weaker
than because.
Since he had no musical instruments then, he made music with
common objects like stones and paper.
As he likes the sounds of nature, Tan uses them a lot in his music.
