一、詳細(xì)釋義：


adv.

因此，所以，結(jié)果


例句：

The company went bankrupt and consequently he lost his job.

公司破產(chǎn)，因此他失業(yè)了。


例句：

I missed the train and consequently was late for work.

我沒有趕上火車，結(jié)果上班遲到了。


例句：

The rain was heavy and [consequently] the land was flooded.

雨下得很大，因此這地方發(fā)大水了。


二、詞義辨析：


accordingly,consequently,hence,so,therefore,thus

這些連接副詞均有“因此，所以”之意。 accordingly書面用詞，強(qiáng)調(diào)根據(jù)某種原因而得出的結(jié)果，其前可用冒號或分號，但不用逗號。 consequently正式用詞，側(cè)重符合邏輯的結(jié)果。 hence較正式用詞，指接下來的東西是理所當(dāng)然的必需的東西，但強(qiáng)調(diào)其重要性。 so用于比較隨便的場合，口語中多用。 therefore通常指引出一個推斷出的必然結(jié)論。 thus多用于書面語中，可與therefore換用。


三、參考例句：

我錯過了那趟火車，因此上學(xué)遲到了。
