要注意：on account of ,because of ,due to ,owing to ,和 thanks to 的用法比較
這一組詞都表示"由于"的意思,在使用時(shí)應(yīng)該注意以下區(qū)別：
1．because of意為"由于,因?yàn)?,強(qiáng)調(diào)因果關(guān)系,在句中僅作狀語,修飾句中的一部分,與其他成分不用逗號(hào)隔開.如：We must not get discouraged because of such a minor setback．
我們決不可因?yàn)檫@樣一個(gè)小小的挫折而灰心喪氣.
2．owing to與because of一樣,也強(qiáng)調(diào)因果關(guān)系,除作狀語外,也可作表語.作狀語時(shí)修飾整個(gè)句子,可在句首或句末,用逗號(hào)隔開.如：
They decided to cancel the flight,owing to the storm．
由于這場(chǎng)暴風(fēng)雨,他們決定取消這個(gè)航班.
His death was owing to an accident．他死于一場(chǎng)事故.
3．due to引出造成后果的原因,在句中作表語、狀語和定語.作表語和狀語時(shí)與owing to同義,作狀語時(shí),一般不與其他成分隔開.如：
This accident was due to（owing to）his careless driving．
這次車禍?zhǔn)怯捎谒_車疏忽大意造成的.
He arrived late due to（owing to）the storm．由于暴風(fēng)雨他來晚了.
Mistakes due to carelessness may have serious consequences．
由于疏忽大意造成的錯(cuò)誤可能帶來嚴(yán)重的后果.
4．on account of與because of,owing to同義,但語氣較為正式.可作狀語、表語,不作定語.如：
He could not come on account of his illness．他因病不能前來.
That was on account of lack of exercise．那是由于缺乏鍛煉.
5．thanks to表示"幸虧,多虧"多用于表達(dá)正面意思,相當(dāng)于感謝,在句中作狀語和表語.如：
Thanks to your advice,much trouble was saved．
多虧你的建議,減少了許多麻煩.
