大全229 之迷惑

1.        Crises in international diplomacy do not always result from malice; for nations, like individuals, can find themselves locked into difficult positions, unable to back down.

(A) do not always result from malice; for nations, like individuals, can find

(B) do not always results from malice; nations, just as individuals, finding

(C) do not always results from malice; nations, such as individuals, can find

(D) aren’t always the results of malice; nations in the same way that individuals can find

我是这样理解的

A. For nations can find themselves locked ... and unable to...

形容词中间可以省略and.

C do not result(s)错. such as意思错.

我是这样理解的. for nations, like xxx, (nations) can find ...

后面的nations省略了.

Such an idea of nationhood supports the intervention in Zaire. It is part of our purpose together: for nations, like individuals, must have a reason to live, beyond mere existence.

For作为表示因果关系的连词的用法：

1)用于正式语体。

2) because的位置灵活，for只能位于主句之后，由逗号隔开：He is absent today, for he is ill.

3) Because 可以回答why问句，for不可以

4) Because之前可以带并列连词或强调词，for不可以。

5) 连词for可以引导一个独立的句子，为上文的情况说明原因或理由。也就是说for可以跟在逗号，分号，句号之后。Because一般不引导单独分句，回答why问句时可以是一个例外。
