雅思大作文中有一類題目是因果關係類，具體包括三小類：cause and effect、cause and solution、problem and solution。這三小類問題也可以穿起來，即針對某個topic的cause—effect(即problem)– solution。下面是yjbys網小編提供給大家關於雅思寫作關於因果關係表達總結，希望對大家的寫作有所幫助。
無論哪種題目，寫明因果關係很重要。關於因果關係的表達同學們都很熟悉，無非是BS(because / so)，而且大家也一定很清楚的知道BS在英語中，用了前者就不能用後者的道理。例如
Becausefurther education has become more accessible for a wider range of people， an increasing number of people have degrees
Further education has become more accessible for a wider range of people， so an increasing number of people have degrees。
但是除了BS之外，還有很多其它表示因果關係的表達，具體如下：
Because系列(表原因)：
1。 because of ： because後接的是一個句子(主謂賓);because of 後一般直接跟名詞。例如：
Because ofthe increasing number of machine—and as we noted before， machines magnify human effort—then anyone using a machine can
get a higher wage than anyone not using a machine。
2。 as / since (除了“因為“外，還有”自從”的意思，使用時要注意避免歧義)

Unfortunately， as the number of people living in the city increases， so do the different problems associated with population growth。 (注意此句中的so不表示“所以”，而是“…也…”的意思)
3。 thanks to (positive situations 通常適用於結果好的時候)
Thanks to new technology， it‘s easier than ever to work remotely。
due to (negative situations通常使用與結果不好的時候)
owing to / attributable to /on account of
Due to /… / On account of extreme weather conditions， damage to property occurs。
4。 當原因需要的表達較多時，我們還可以把以上表達改寫為原因狀語從句，使用thanks to the fact that / due to the fact that /owing to the fact that 或者on the grounds that ，，，
Will we live longer merely due to the fact that / on the grounds that technology， if implemented properly， will take stress away from our lives

3。 consequently /accordingly
