出纳工作内容及流程高中英语词语辨析due to产前检查与owing to
这一对词组都表示“因为”、“人才需求由于”之意,但用法和使用场合有所不同。
在标准英语里,due to只能用以引导形容词短语,不可引导副词短语。例如:老年人手抖是什么原因
Our delay was due to heavy traffic.
Mistakes due to carelessness may have rious conquences.
在第一例中,due to引导的短语在句中作表语,用在 verb“to be”之后;在第二例中,due to引导的短语作定语,修饰前面的主语mistakes。主张语言纯正者(purists)认为,due to不能引导副词短语,因此,下列句中的 due to应改为 owing to小技能或 becau of:
Due to ill health,he could not attend the meeting
由于健康不佳,他不能参加会议。
事实上,在现代英语中,due to也经常用以引导副词短语,下面数句均摘自英美刊物:
Due to the weather,the flight was cancelled.座位排序的基本规则

…in America,where women began to predominate from pioneer times,due to their scarcity and greater demands.
Owing to如同 becau of或 on account of一样,是个介词,只能引导副词短语。例:

由于下雨,他们不能来了。谈判官剧情介绍
