cause偏重指发生或形成某事发作的缘故原由,常常指形成欠好的影响,reason偏重指注释或阐明某事发作的来由或缘故原由。cause用于暗示具有较着因果干系的缘故原由。reason偶然能与cause换用,但高低文必需有可以查得出的或能够注释得出的因果干系。
cause和reason的区分
1、cause指点致某事发作的举动、变乱等。
reason指某事发作的缘故原由或做某事的合理来由,常后接介词 for 及 why 或 that 指导的从句,作“来由”解时还可后接动词不定式。
例句:
Lack of physical exercise is the leading cause of obesity in young students.
缺少体育熬炼是青少年门生瘦削的次要缘故原由。
She gave her reason for being late.
她说出了早退的缘故原由。
2、cause更多地指“缘故原由、原因、泉源”,即形成一种究竟或征象的比力间接的、底子的客观前提、状况、变乱、力气等;
reason更多地从感性的角度动身,夸大“推理”,指关于某个状况或观点从逻辑推理上引出结论的“来由”。
