教学资源库
原因状语从句一般由because, since, as, for引导，注意as, because, since和for以及because和because of的区别。
1. because & because of
because表示“因为，由于”，是从属连词，后跟原因状语从句，往往放在句末(有时也放在句首)，直接明白地说明因果关系，它所表达的语气是这四个词中最为强烈的，它所引导的原因状语从句一般要放在主句之后，可单独存在。因此，在回答why的提问时或原句有just, only, not…but all等副词强调原因时必须用because。此外，在强调句中，只能用because。
e.g. A：Why can’t I go?　我为什么不能去?
B：Because you are too young. 因为你太年轻了。
He　didn’t　attend　the　meeting　because　he　had　too　much　work　to　do.
It　is　because　it　rained　last　week　that　they　put　off　the　match.
because of也有“因为；由于”之意。because of为介词短语，后跟名词、代词、what引导的从句及-ing，不能跟原因状语从句。
e.g. He cried because of what his mother said.
The sporting meeting is put off because of the bad weather.
He was punished because of being late for school.
2.since和as是从属连词，说明的是已为人们所知和理由。since的语气比because弱，但比as强。since和as引导的从句一般放在句子的开头。since更加强调“既然”、“由于”，用来表示大家已然知道的事实，侧重主句。as不如since正式，而且经常用于口语。
e.g. Since he was busy, he didn't come.
As I have a day off today, I'll write to you.
此外，since也可以述说推断的理.
e.g. It must have rained, since the ground is wet.
3. for “因为，由于”并列连词，表明附加或推断的理由，引导的分居前常有逗号，for分句不放句首。
