because表示原因是必定因果关系；语气最强；通常在主句之后，有时也在主句之后回答why提出问题，只能用because回答_Whycan’tIgo?_

Because

youaretooyoung.78/1133.because引导从句可用于强调句，其余不能It’s

since引导从句置于主句之前，表示已知，显然理由。“既然”较为正式，语气比because弱。Since

youarefreetoday,youhadbetterhelpmewithmyEnglish.2.Since可用于省略句，其它不能Since

so,thereisnomoretobesaid.81/113asas引导原因状语从句时表示附带说明“双方已知原因”，语气比since弱，较为正式，位置灵活（常置于主句前）。As

itisraining,you’dbettertakeataxi.82/113Becauseof句型because

of是固定短语，后接名词，或名词性短语。表示“因为”，“因为”。它可引导介词短语作表语，也可引导短语作状语。He
