求解关于due to的问题，各位NN帮帮忙呀

DreamerHan

正在看prep2008语法笔记（红字部分是出自笔记）
Due to means"caused by". It should only be used if it can be substitued with "caused by".
It doed not mean the same thing as "because of".
Incorrect: The game was postponed due to rain.
Correct: The game was postponed because of rain.
Correct: The game's postponement was due to rain.
我的问题是将第一个incorrect的句子中的due to变成caused by
The game was postponed caused by rain.这句话有什么错误啊？是caused by修饰有错误吗？含义上也有错误吗？我怎么看不出来。。。。。

caused by xxx 只能做 adj 做不了adv
这么说没错
the postonement of the game is caused by/due to the heavy rain.

亲，你的意思就是caused by不能修饰The game was postponed.这个clause吧~

caused by/due 都是adj不是adv，所以只能修饰名词。

Due to means"caused by". It shoud only be used if it can be substitued with "caused by".
It doed not mean the same thing as "because of".
Incorrect: The game was postponed due to rain.
Correct: The game was postponed because of rain.
Correct: The game's postponement was due to rain.

其实是这样的，在GMAT和大多数非GMAT语法中，due to +n  修饰的对象基本都是名词或者名词性词组，所以基本不修饰整句话，要修饰整句话用because of。
The game was postponed caused by rain.这句话错的地方在于：caused的逻辑主语是game，那么还原就是the game was cased by rain 这个太离谱了！
很明显是the postponement was cased by rain.

恩恩 谢谢回答~ 形容词性只能is due to这么用吧

不知怎么回事 帖子有回复都米有显示 先谢谢亲的回答啦~
其实我现在看The game was postponed caused by rain.这句话就感觉很别扭了，因为caused by必须有一个紧贴的名词被它修饰的。

Caused by rain,the game was postponed.也不对，GMAT最讨厌说不清楚的句子。caused by rain在这句话里修饰game，the game caused by rain 这就又回到due to那里了。
