English Grammar -Cause and Effect 因果句型

◇ Cause and Effect
因果句型


  某些動詞,例如 inspire、attribute to、result in 等,雖說字面上沒有明確表達「因為」或「所以」,但因有「源自於」或「導致」的概念存在其中,所以帶有因果關係。例如:For instance, the 1998 publication of a single pseudoscientific paper arguing that routine vaccination of children causes autism inspired an entire anti-vaccination movement 這句, inspire 雖然不是「所以」,但仍有「啟發、喚起」的意思,因此可以看出,是 the 1998 publication of a single pseudoscientific paper arguing that routine vaccination of children causes autism「造成」了一場反疫苗的運動,也就代表是因為那篇論文,所以才有這個運動的產生。


Example:


1. The doctors have attributed the cause of the illness to an unknown virus.

  醫生們認為這種疾病是由一種未知的病毒引起。


2. The fire resulted in damage to their property.

  她們的財產因為火災蒙受了損失。


3. The design of the car has inspired many imitations.

  受這款車設計的啟發出現了很多仿冒品。
