我问了一个美国人,在校学生,是我在Berlitz上学时的老师.他是这么解释的:"In that"is not as strong as "because." It's closer to " could be" or "so far as".To say that something is something else in that... means "Well, you could look at it that way..." So, anthropology is a science _because_ anthropologists use a vigorous set of methods and techniques means that anthroplogy is a science because there are no exact answers...Many people don't think that anthroplogy is a science because there are no exact answers. But anthropology _could be considered_ a science because of the research methods used. So, so far as the methods are concerned, anthropology is a science. 我看还是"因为"的意思
