as和for都有“因为”的意思.但是as比for的语气弱.as用来表示显而易见的原因,而for却有一种解释说明的语气.
例:as it is raining,we have to call of the meeting.
please forgive him,for he is only 13 years old.
for ,because,as,since这四个词作为连词,都有"因为"的意思,但它们在用法上有区别:
because 是从属连词,接表示直接原因的从句,一般放在主句的后面,也可放在主句前面,它表示的语气最强,在回答why的问句时,必须用because.
例如:The swimming pool won't be open today because they're making repairs.
游泳池今天不开放,因为他们在修理.
Why did you move to France?
你们为什么搬到法国?
Because my father found work in Paris.
因为我父亲在巴黎找到了工作.
注意:在英语中用了because后,不可再用so.
as 是从属连词,说明一般的因果关系,语气比because弱,说明比较明显的原因,它引导的从句通常放在句首,有时也可放在句末.
例如:As it is raining, you\'d better take a taxi.
天下雨了,你最好乘出租车.
since 意为"既然",表示对方已知的无需加以说明的原因或事实,语气比because弱,但是比as 强.
例如:Since we have no money, we can't buy that vase.
既然我们没钱,我们就不能买那花瓶.
Since everybody is here, let's begin our party.
既然大家都到了,那就开始我们的聚会吧!
for 是并列连词,用来附带解释说明前一分句的原因或理由,for引导的并列句,一般放在所要说明的句子的后面.
例如:I went to see him, for I had something to tell him.
我去见他,因为我有事要告诉他.
其他同学给出的参考思路:
as表示显而易见的原因,语气非常轻缓。
eg as it is going to rain, let's go home.
因为要下雨了,所以回家。“下雨”是“回家”显而易见的原因。
for有解释说明的意味,且一般不在句首,主从句间有逗号隔开。
forgive him, for he is only ten。
原谅他吧,因为他只有10岁。之所以要原谅他,是...

题1: for,since,as引导原因状语从句时分别的用法区别求详解,这方面很弱…[英语科目]
1.since较as意味略强.它们都可以表示较明显的或对方已知的原因.可分别译作“既然”和“由于”.since和as从句一般放在主句之前.例如:
Since his method doesn't work,let's try yours.既然他的方法不行,我们就试试你的吧.
As I didn't know how to do it,I asked the teacher.由于我不知道怎样做,就问了老师.
2.for是并列连词,位于两句之中,连接并列的分句.当for表示因果关系时,可与because换用,但在for前面须用逗号.例如:
You couldn't have seen him,because/for he wasn't there.你不可能见到他,因为当时他不在那里.
for除此之外了表示因果关系外,还可以述说对主句中的事实或看法的解释.例如:
It will rain,for it's getting dark,要下雨了,因为天气越来越暗了.
题2: because,since,as,for这几个词的用法区别[英语科目]
1) 关于 because:语气最强,表示直接原因,可用于回答 why 提出的问题、引导表语从句、用于强调句等,而其余三者均不行:
“Why didn’t he come?” “Because he was ill.” “他为什么没来?”“因为他病了.”
My stomach hurts because I have eaten too many apples.我肚子痛,因为苹果吃得太多.
That’s because you can’t appreciate music.这是因为你不能欣赏音乐.
It is because he is honest that I like him.是因为他诚实我才喜欢他.
(2) 关于 since 与 as:
a.两者所表示的原因都是人们已知的,即对已知事实提供理由,而不是表示直接原因.since 比 as 语气稍强,且比 as 略为正式,它们引导的从句通常放在主句之前,有时也放在主句之后:
As you weren’t there,I left a message.由于你不在那儿,我留了个口信.
Since you are wrong,you should apologize.你既然错了,就应该道歉.
b.since 可用于省略句,而其他三者不行:
Since so,I have nothing to say.既然如此,我无话可说.
(3) 关于 for:是并列连词(其余三者为从属连词),它有时可表示因果关系(通常要放在主句之后,且可与 because 换用);有时不表示因果关系,而是对前面分句内容的解释或推断(也要放在主句之后,但不能与because 换用).比较:
The ground is wet,for (=because) it rained last night.地面是湿的,因为昨晚下过雨.
It must have rained last night,for the ground is wet this morning.昨晚一定下过雨,你看今天早上地面是湿的.(此句不能用 because 代 for)
题3: as,like,for作“像.一样”时用法区别,并举例[英语科目]
很早的时候,like是形容词,表示相象、相同、类似等意;as是连接词.
Samy and Sammy are very like.Samy和Sammy长得很像.
Paul behaved as a child(does).保罗的举止像个小孩.(句子有省略)
后来,like作为介词使用,表示像…一样;as也可以作为介词使用了.
Paul behaved like a child.保罗的举止像个小孩.(句子没有省略)
再比较:
Let me speak to you as a father.让我以父亲的地位对你说说.(=I am your father and I am speaking to you in that character)
Let me speak to you like a father.让我像你父亲那样对你说说.(= I am not your father but I am speaking to you in the way your father might)
再后来,有些语法学家把以往like不允许作连词使用的规则也改了,用来代替引导方式状语从句的as.
I can't sing like I used to do.我不能像过去那样地唱了.(指唱的音色)
He writes just like his brother did when he was young.他写字的手法和他兄弟年轻时写的差不离.(指书法的风格和字型)
即使如此,like和as有时还是有些区别的.试比较:
The prisoner was hanged like a murderer.这个囚徒像杀人犯那样被处以绞刑(=…as if he were a murderer).
The prisoner was hanged as a murderer.这个犯人作为杀人犯被处以绞刑.(这个犯人就是杀人犯)
题4: actas与actfor的用法区别是啥[英语科目]
1.act as (临时)担任,充当,起……的作用.如:A trained dog can act as a guide to a blind person.经过训练的狗可以担任盲人的向导.表示担任独一无二的职务,其前通常不用冠词.如:He acted as manager in my absence.我不在时他担任经理.I don’t understand their language; you’ll have to act as interpreter.我不懂他们的语言,你得当翻译了.
