Their meanings are pretty much the same.The only difference is the usage.
given (KNOWING)
preposition
knowing about or considering a particular thing:
1.'Given' is a preposition therefore a noun or a nominal phrase follows it.
e.g.Given his age,he's a remarkably fast learner.
e.g.Given the circumstances,you've done an excellent job.
2.Given (the fact) + that clause,main clause.
e.g.Given (the fact) that the earthquake has damaged severely,we still try to enable the evacuees to be as independent as possible.
e.g.Given (the fact) that ordinary people are bombarded by all different kinds of ads,selecting a suitable product is not that easy.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Note:來不及用中文解釋,如有任何問題,可補而述之.
_________
given與 given that 在意義上沒有多大區(qū)別,所差在於用法.
它們的定義視上下文而定.大致上有如果考慮到.就所知.而論.
e.g.given his age,就他的年紀(jì)來說,.
e.g.given the circumstances,如果考慮到各種情況,.
1.Given 為介詞,所以后面須接名詞或名詞片語.
就此定義,本人沒有看過,其后加動名詞.你在哪里看過嗎?
e.g.Given his age,…..
Given為介詞.his age為名詞片語.
2.Given + that clause,main clause
Given + that 引導(dǎo)的從屬子句,后接主要子句.
e.g.Given (the fact) that the earthquake has damaged severely,we still try to enable the evacuees to be as independent as possible.
Given + that clause
that clause (that 引導(dǎo)的從屬子句)
= that the earthquake has damaged severely
main clause (主要子句)
= we still try to enable the evacuees to be as independent as possible.
e.g.Given (the fact) that ordinary people are bombarded by all different kinds of ads,selecting a suitable product is not that easy.
Given + that clause
that clause (that 引導(dǎo)的從屬子句)
= that ordinary people are bombarded by all different kinds of ads
main clause (主要子句)
= selecting a suitable product is not that easy
