雅思寫作因果關系表達匯總（干貨）
來源：互聯(lián)網
小編：環(huán)球教育整理 1091雅思大作文中有一類題目是因果關系類，具體包括三小類：cause and effect、cause and solution、problem and solution。這三小類問題也可以穿起來，即針對某個topic的cause—effect（即problem）– solution。
無論哪種題目，寫明因果關系很重要。關于因果關系的表達同學們都很熟悉，無非是BS（because / so），而且大家也一定很清楚的知道BS在英語中，用了前者就不能用后者的道理。例如
Becausefurther education has become more accessible for a wider range of people, an increasing number of people have degrees
Further education has become more accessible for a wider range of people, so an increasing number of people have degrees.
但是除了BS之外，還有很多其它表示因果關系的表達，具體如下：
Because系列（表原因）：
1. because of : because后接的是一個句子（主謂賓)；because of 后一般直接跟名詞。例如：
Because ofthe increasing number of machine—and as we noted before, machines magnify human effort—then anyone using a machine can
get a higher wage than anyone not using a machine.
2. as / since (除了“因為“外，還有”自從”的意思，使用時要注意避免歧義)
Hours spent on commuting, traffic jams, and fights for parking should diminish, sinceworkers make fewer journeys or work staggered hours
Unfortunately, as the number of people living in the city increases, so do the different problems associated with population growth. （注意此句中的so不表示“所以”，而是“…也…”的意思）
3. thanks to (positive situations 通常適用于結果好的時候)
Thanks to new technology, it's easier than ever to work remotely.
due to (negative situations通常使用與結果不好的時候)
owing to / attributable to /on account of
Due to /… / On account of extreme weather conditions, damage to property occurs.
4. 當原因需要的表達較多時，我們還可以把以上表達改寫為原因狀語從句，使用thanks to the fact that / due to the fact that /owing to the fact that 或者on the grounds that ,,,
Will we live longer merely due to the fact that / on the grounds that technology, if implemented properly, will take stress away from our lives
5. caused by / result from 也表原因
Many car accidents were resulted from / caused by a lack of guardrails
So系列（表結果）：
1. thus/ therefore / thereby / hence
thus: 表示‘in this/that way’

therefore: 表示 ‘for this reason’ /‘because of this or that’

2. As a result / As a consequence

As a consequence, environmental health must address the societal and environmental factors that increase the likelihood of exposure and disease.
3. consequently /accordingly
Consequently 更偏重因果邏輯；accordingly 更偏重后續(xù)解決
