留学生在写作essay时不可避免地会遇到这样的情形：一段话中表示连接的相同短语多次出现，想要找到替换的单词或短语又不知从何下手，导致最终写出的论文自我感觉重复过多，这样一来也不会给导师或读者留下很好的印象。最终的论文成绩不甚理想，更严重者可能出现重复度过高的情况，辛苦写作的论文反而被打上“不及格” 的标签。为了预防这种情况的发生，唯一网址：www.mingxinwrite.com小编今天就和大家聊一聊essay写作中英文连接词的那些事。
because essay连接词
Because/because of 是essay写作中最为常用的essay连接词，通常表示 “因为/由于” 的含义。既可以用于比较正式的形式，也可以用于非正式的形式。在留学生的日常写作中，我们可以用以下的一些单词或短语来替代它们，像as, since, as a result of, as long as, being as, due to, inasmuch as, now that, out of, owing to等。虽然这些短语在一定程度上可以表示 “因为/由于” 连接或转折的含义，但他们有其各自的适用性和独特含义。具体情况如下：
一、As/ since
当读者已经知道了原因或者as/since引导的从句并不是句子中最为重要的部分时，可以使用as/since替代because.
举例：
As the man had no friends, he walked alone.
Because the man had no friends, he walked alone.
因为男人没有朋友，所以他独自一个行走。
二、较正式的essay连接词
可以用于替换because的比较正式的单词或短语包括 inasmuch as和in view of the fact that.
Inasmuch as 译为 “因为”，或多或少与because有相同的含义，通常用于比较正式的场合。
In view of the fact that 中文解释为 “鉴于以下事实”，与 inasmuch as有相同的含义。
举例：
Inasmuch as
Inasmuch as the patient had contracted a contagious infection, visitors were required to wear gowns and masks.
Because the patient had contracted a contagious infection, visitors were required to wear gowns and masks.
因为病人感染了传染性疾病，所以要求访客穿上防护服和口罩。
In view of the fact that
That was awful, even more so in view of the fact that it was Smith.
That was awful, even more so because it was Smith.
这真是太糟糕了，因为这是Smith。
三、非正式的essay连接词
与because有相同含义用于非正式形式的短语包括as long as, being as, considering that等。
As long as “只要” 表示当某一件事情正在发生、将要发生或者是真实时，另一件事是可能的。
Being as “作为”, 又可写作 being as how, being that与as long as有相同的意义和形式。
Considering that “考虑到”, 在含义和形式上等同于as long as, being that.
举例：
As long as
As long as he studied, he received excellent marks.
Because he studied, he received excellent marks.
因为他复习了，所以取得了优异的成绩。
Considering that
Considering the extenuating circumstances, I will forgive his absence.
Because of the extenuating circumstances, I will forgive his absence.
考虑到形势恶化，我将原谅他的缺席。
四、介词形式的essay连接词
As a result of 中文译为 “结果是”，可以用于替代because of, 而不是because。
Due to 表示 “由于的含义”，和as a result of 一样，due to 是一个介词，所以通常可以替换because of。
Owing to 是指“由于”, 类似于due to, 通常用于一个正式的场合。
Through 表示 “通过” 的含义，是一个介词，可以用于替换because of。
举例：
As a result of
As a result of her impudence, the teacher gave her a detention.
Because of her impudence, the teacher gave her a detention.
由于/因为她的无礼，老师把她拘留了。
Owing to
Owing to his poor interpersonal skills, he was demoted.
Because of his poor interpersonal skills, he was demoted.
因为他的人际交往能力差，他被降职。
五、其他含义的英文连接词
For 在表示 "because" 的含义时，通常用于比较诗意化的表达。
Thanks to "得益于/感谢", 可用于积极或消极的结果。
举例：
For
Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
让我们吃喝，因为明天我们会死了。
Thanks to
Thanks to the treatment, her condition has improved.
因为治疗，她的情况得到了改善。
