3.表示因果的连词
1)for可以表示因为但引导的不是从句,而是分句,对前面情况加以解释,常用逗号把它和前面的分句分开,这在书面语中计较多见(口语中多用because, as , since等):
The days were short, for it was now December. 白天很短,因为现在已经是十二月。
它还可以表示为什么有前面的看法(此时不能用because, as, since):
She must have gone out early, for she had not shown up at breakfast.
她肯定一早出去了,因为她没来吃早饭。
2)so 表示结果,可译为因此、所以:
Our cases were heavy, so we took a taxi. 我们的箱子很重,因此我们坐了出租车。
3)therefore 为副词,也表示同样的意思,可放句前:
He had gone; she therefore gave the money to me.
他走了,于是她把钱给了我。
4)hence 也是副词,也表示类似意思,多用在说理性文章中,且多用在分句或句子开头:
My mother is by herself; hence I must go home now. 我妈一个人在家,因此我得回去了。
