雅思托福口语干货分享 | 常见“因果转折”的表达方式！

胖花爱吃肉

对于所有语言来说，因果“转折”后面的内容意味着说话人的核心，很多阅读技巧更要重视“转折”后面的内容，常用的“因果转折”表达有哪些。

陈述原因
Because: 因为
1）用了because，不要用so
because已能清楚表明因果关系，再加so是多余的。
2）句子必须是完整有因果关系的句子
Because I was sick
I didn't go to work today because I was sick.
我今天没去上班，因为病了。
Because I was sick, I didn‘t go to work today.
因为我病了，所以今天没去上班。
Since: 因为、由于
比because稍微正式一些，可以在口语中使用
Since I was sick today, I didn't go to work.
因为今天病了，所以我没去上班。
As: 由于、鉴于
比because和since都更正式，可以在口语中使用
I missed your call as I was busy cooking.
我忙着做饭，所以没听到你的电话。
更加正式的方式
Due to: 由于、归咎于
Due to the rising cost of living in America, many young people are moving out of big cities.
由于美国的生活成本不断升高，很多年轻人都在搬离大城市。
Considering: 考虑到（由于）
Many are switching to EVs considering their cost and environmental benefits.
考虑到开支和环境上的双重益处，许多人都开始买电动汽车。

陈述‘所以’
So: 所以
口语中最常用的“所以”表达，不适用于正式书写（马上教大家可以用的）。
The restaurant was full, so we had to go to another one.
饭店满了，所以我们不得不去另一家。
更正式的“所以”
以下这一组都是适合用于更正式场合的，尤其是书写中：
Therefore, Hence, Thus, As a result, Consequently
I did not receive any information about promotion, …
我没有收到任何关于升职的消息，所以….

陈述‘虽然’
Although / Though / even though /
大家千万要记住，用了although，绝对不要用but，是个语法硬伤，
Although / even though the wait was long, the food was amazing.
虽然等了很久，但是菜很好吃。
I like noodles. I don't like these noodles though.
虽然我爱吃面，但我不喜欢这种面。
Despite, in spite of
比although那组词更正式一些，在书写里用得更多 。
We still went hiking despite the rain.
尽管下了雨，我们还是去爬山了。
We still went hiking in spite of the rain.
尽管下了雨，我们还是去爬山了。

陈述‘但是’
But: 但是
I didn't like the movie, but my husband loved it.
我不喜欢那部电影，但是我先生喜欢。
However: 但是
比but要正式一些，但口语里也常用。
I didn't like the movie. However, my husband loved it.
我不喜欢那部电影，但是我先生喜欢。
也可以用在句尾：
I didn't like the movie. My husband loved it, however.
