同近义词辨析

because, for, as, since

这组词都有“因为”的意思，其区别是：

because从属连词，语意强，着重直接的原因或理由，所引出的从句是全句的重心，用以回答why提出的问题。

for并列连词，语气较弱，所引出的句子一般放在后面，表示附带说明的理由或推断理由。

as 从属连词，语意较because, since弱，着重在主句，所表示的原因或理由是“附带的”。

since语意比because弱，但比as强，一般用于表示“由于大家已知的事实”。

for, since

for 接一段时间 for three years,

since 接点时间或一句话，since 3:00
