原因状语从句一般由because(因为)，since(既然)，as(由于)，now that(既然，因为)等连词引导 1、because, since, as, for和now that引导原因状语从句 （1）because

表示直接的原因或理由，表示原因的语气最强，常表示必然的因果关系。回答以why引起的特殊疑问句，只能用because。

Jane wore a raincoat because it was raining.因为天下雨，所以詹穿着雨衣。 He is absent today because he is ill.他今天缺课，因为他病了。 （2）since

表示对方已经知晓、无须加以说明的原因或事实，语气比because稍弱。 I'll do it for you since you are busy.既然你忙，我来替你做吧。 Since you insist, I'll go.既然你坚持，那我就去。

Since you have seen both fighters, who do you think will win?既然两个拳击手你都见了，你认为谁会赢？ （3）as

表示的往往是十分明显的原因，听者或读者已经知道或能看得出来，语气较弱，只附带说明，比较口语化。

We had better hurry as it's getting dark.因为天快要黑了，我们最好快点。 As you object, I'll change the plan.由于你反对，我将改变计划。 As it is raining, I'll not go out. 因为正在下雨，我就不出去了。 （4）for

for是并列连词，它引导的分句不表示直接的原因，而是用来附带解释或说明前面一句的情况。for引导的分句常位于第一分句之后，它们之间用逗号隔开。

It must have rained last night, for the ground is wet this morning.昨晚准是下雨了，今天早上地面还是湿的。

The day breaks, for the birds are singing.小鸟在歌唱，一定是天亮了。 （5）now that

意为“既然”，与since同义，但更突出事实本身。

Now that you’ve got a chance, you might as well make full use of it. 既然你有了机会，你要充分利用它。

Now that everyone is here, let's begin our meeting.既然大家都来了，我们就开始开会吧。 Now that I am well again, I can go on with my work.我既然恢复了健康，那就可以继续工作了。 2、seeing that, considering that和in that引导原因状语从句 这几个连词同since, as 近义，都有“鉴于某个事实，原因”是之意。

Considering that he's only been learning English a year, he speaks it very well.鉴于他只学了一年， 他英语讲得就是很好。

Seeing that he was ill, they sent for the doctor.鉴于他病情严重，他们派人请医生。 In that she is ill, she feels unable to do it.因为病了，她觉得不能做那件事。 3、not that…but that…引导原因状语从句

这是一种加强语气的表示原因的结构，意为“不是因为，而是因为”

Not that I don't like the film, but that I have no time for it.不是因为我不喜欢这部电影，而是因为我没时间看。

The soldier's essential honor was not that he killed his enemy, but that he was willing to die.军人的真正光荣不是杀敌，而是不惜牺牲。 六、目的状语从句

1、that，so that，in order that引导目的状语从句

目的状语从句由that，so that，in order that等引导。从句中的谓语动词前常有情态动词may、might、can、could、will, would等。

John shut everybody out of the kitchen so that he could prepare his grand surprise for the party. 约翰把其他人关在厨房外，目的是能够为晚会烹饪出人意料的东西。

These men risk their lives in order that we may live more safely. 这些人甘冒生命危险，是为了让我们活得更安全些。

Drive carefully (so) that everyone can enjoy a long life.开车小心点，让大家多活几年。

辨析：in order that引导的状语从句可以放在句首、与句尾，而so that 引导的只能放在句尾；如果从句主语与主句主语一致都可转换成不定式。

She went downtown so that/in order that she would buy some clothes.= She went downtown so as to /in order to buy some clothes.为了买些衣服她进城。

In order that he could make himself understood, he explained it again.= In order to make himself understood, he explained it again.为了让大家理解，他又解释了一遍。 2、lest, for fear that和in case引导目的状语从句

这三个连词词组的意思是“以防，以免”。lest的从句一般要用虚拟语气，形式是“should+动词原形”或省掉should。for fear that和in case从句一般用虚拟语气，但有时也可以用陈述语气。 I obeyed her lest she should be angry. 我得顺着她，免得她生气。

Take a hat with you in case the sun is very hot. 倘若太阳很利害，你就把帽子戴上。 七、结果状语从句

1、so that，so…that, such…that引导结果状语从句

So difficult did I feel it to live in an English-speaking country that I determined to learn English well.我感到在讲英语的国家里生活太难了，因此我决定学好英语。

He worked hard so that he passed the exam. 他学习很努力，结果通过了考试。

The film was so wonderful that we wanted to see it again. 电影很精彩以致于我们还想看一次。 He spoke for such a long time that people began to fall asleep.他讲了那么长时间，人们开始打起瞌睡了。

2、so…that与such…that的区别

这两种结构都可引导结果状语从句。so是副词，后接形容词或副词；such是形容词，后接名词。 （1）单数名词

在so...that与such...that中间出现的是单数名词，且该名词前有形容词修饰时，这两种结构可互换，但要注意它们的词序不同:such+ a/an+形容词十名词=so+形容词+a/an+名词。

She is such a good teacher that all of us love her.= She is so good a teacher that all of us love her.

她是一位很好的老师，我们都敬爱她。 （2）不可数名词或复数可数名词

如果被修饰的是不可数名词或复数可数名词时，一般须用such...that。

He made such rapid progress that before long he began to write articles in English.他进步很快，不久就开始用英语写文章。(不可数名词)

They are such interesting books that we all want to read them.这些书是那么有趣以致我们都想读一读。(复数可数名词)

（3）名词前有many，much，little，few修饰时

如果不可数名词或复数可数名词前有many，much，little，few修饰时，则用so…that。

I've had so many falls that I'm black and blue all over.我摔了好多次跤，周身青一块紫一块的。(复数可数名词)

George had so little money that he had to get a job.乔治没有钱，所以他不得不找工作干。(不可数名词)

They are such little children that they can't do anything.他们是小孩，什么事情都干不了。 巧记so和such引导结果状语从句 名前such，形、副so，多多少少也用so。little属特殊，“小”用such，“少”用so。 3、but, but that 和but what

如果主句中含有never, never so, not so, not such等否定词，可用but, but that 和but what引导结果状语从句，构成双重否定，相当于that…not或unless，可以译成“没有……不”。 She never comes but she borrows. She never comes unless she borrows.她不借东西不来。 She is so old but that she can read.她并未老到不能读书的地步。

There is no man so learned but what he can learn something from this book.再博学的人都会本书学到一些东西。

4、如何判断so that引导的目的状语从句与结果状语从句

（1）当表达的含义是“为了”、“以便”时，为目的状语从句；当表达的是“以至于”、“因此”含义时，为结果状语从句。

If you do know, answer in a loud enough voice so that all the class may hear.(目的状语从句)如果你的确知道，应大声回答，以便让全班学生都可以听见。

It rained hard the day before yesterday, so that she had to stay at home.(结果状语从句)前天雨下得很大，因此她只好呆在家里。

（2）当从句的谓语动词有情态动词can, could, may, might等时，是目的状语从句；当从句里没有情态动词，且谓语动词是一般现在时（过去时）、现在完成时等时态时，是结果状语从句。
