Do not confuse for and since. You use for to say how long a period lasts in the past, present, or future, or how much time passes without something happening. She slept for eight hours... He will be away for three weeks... I hadn't seen him for four years. You use since to say when a period of time started. She has been with the group since it began. ...the first civilian president since the coup 17 years ago. You also use since to refer to the last time that something happened, or to how much time passes without something happening. She hadn't eaten since breakfast... It was a long time since she had been to church. You can use because, as, since, or for to give an explanation for something. Because is the commonest of these, and is used when answering a question beginning with 'why?'.You can use as or since instead of because to introduce a clause containing a reason for something, especially in writing. ...a note about The National Portrait Gallery, as the word 'Gallery' can be misleading... Since the juice is quite strong, you should always dilute it. In stories, for is sometimes used to explain or justify something. He seemed to be in need of company, for he suddenly went back into the house. Note that because is a conjunction, and is used to link two ideas within one sentence. I'm unsocial, because of my deafness.
不要混淆 for 和 since。for 用来表示过去、现在或将来的一段时间，还可表示某段时间内某事没有发生：She slept for eight hours (她睡了 8 小时)，He will be away for three weeks (他将离开 3 周)，I hadn't seen him for four years (我有 4 年没见他了)。since 用来表示某段时间的起点：She has been with the group since it began (该集团创建之初她就在那儿工作)，the first civilian president since the coup 17 years ago (17 年前政变后的第一个平民总统)。since 还可用来指某事发生的最后时间，或某段时间内某事没有发生：She hadn't eaten since breakfast (早饭后她一直没吃过东西)，It was a long time since she had been to church (她很久没去教堂了)。because，as，since，for 均可用来解释原因。because 最常用，用来回答以 why 开头的疑问句。 as 或 since 可用来代替 because 引导一个表示原因的从句，尤用于书面语：a note about The National Portrait Gallery, as the word ‘Gallery’ can be misleading (对 The National Portait Gallery 的注释，因为 Gallery 一词容易令人误解)，Since the juice is quite stong, you should always dilute it (由于果汁很浓，你必须加水稀释)。在讲述故事时，for 用来对某事作出解释或论证：He seemed to be in need of company, for he suddenly went back into the house (他似乎需要人作伴，因为他突然返回了房子里)。注意，because 是连词，用于连接一个句子中的两个意思：I'm unsocial, because of my deafness (我不善交际, 因为我耳朵聋)。

prep.(介词)

since用作介词的意思是“从…以来,自从…之后”,其宾语常指过去的一个时间点,其含意通常指持续到说话时刻的动作或情况开始于什么时候。

since之后常接名词、动名词作其宾语, since then意为“从那以后”。

adv.(副词)

since用作副词表示“以前”时还可和long, ever连用。long since意为“好久以前”, not long since意为“就在不久前”, ever since意为“从那时起,此后一直”。

conj.(连词)

since用作连词作“自从…以来〔以后或,现在〕”解时,引导时间状语从句,在主句是现在完成时的情况下,如果since从句中谓语动词用一般过去时,则表示动作或状态的完成,计时的起点是动作或状态完成的那一时刻,在语意上,非延续性动词的句子与其词意一致,含有肯定的意味,而延续性动词的句子与其词意恰好相反,含有否定的意味; 如果since从句用延续性动词的现在完成时,则表示该动作或状态一直延续到现在时刻,而且可以包括现在时刻在内,时间的起点应从动作发生之时算起,句子的意思和动词的词意一致,具有肯定意味; 在现代英语中,延续性动词的一般过去时有时也可表示动作或状态延续到现在时刻,时间的起点从动作或状态发生之时算起,不过这类句子多半要用ever来加强since的语意,然而, since从句中的谓语动词如果是非延续性动词,即使用ever来加强语意,也绝不意味着从句动作有什么延续性。

在“it is+since从句”结构中:since从句的谓语动词多用一般过去时,其时间起点的计算以及从句的含意和动词词意的关系与1.中所述的相应部分相同; since从句中的谓词动词也可以用现在完成时,表示动作或状态的完成,时间的起点从动作或状态的完成之时算起,句子与动词的词意相反,含有否定的意味; 在这种结构中,如把is改成was,可用来表示某一过去动作或状态结束时起到另一过去时刻为止的这一段过去时间。

since引导时间状语从句时,若主句表示目前的状况是由于过去某一件事所造成的后果或影响时,其谓语动词也可以用一般现在时; 有时候,通过上下文,可以看出从句的动作是延续到过去某个时间,这时主句的谓语动词要用过去完成时; 如果主句的动作是从过去某时一直延续到现在,主句可用现在完成进行时。

since作“因为,既然,由于”解时,引导原因状语从句,用来说明产生主句的原因,这种原因带有分析后的推理性质。

prep.(介词)

since, after, in

这三个介词都可指示时间关系,表示“在…之后”。其区别是：

after可表示从过去时间算起的一段时间之后,往往与过去时态连用（若接表示时间点的词，也可与将来时态连用）; in则表示从现在时间算起推移到将来的一段时间之后,一般与将来时态连用; since所表示的时间往往是从过去某一点时间一直延续到说话的时间,因而一般与完成时态连用。

conj.(连词)

since, for

这两个词都可以和表示时间的词语连用。一般说来, for后接一段时间(累计时间),用以说明某事一直进行了多长时间; 而since后接某一时间(过去的一个时间点),用以表示某件事开始的时间。

prep.(介词)［误］ It is now sixty-two years since World War Ⅱ.第二次世界大战距今已有62年了。

正

It is now fifty-six years since World War Ⅱ.
第二次世界大战距今已有56年了。

析

since的宾语有时也可指过去的一段时间,此时since引导的介词短语所表示的时间通常是从这个时期的结束点算起,而第二次世界大战是1939年开始,1945年结束,以2001年计算,因此应是56年,而不是62年。

☆ 15世纪中期进入英语，直接源自古英语的sian，意为那时。
