Where there is a will, there is a way.(有志者,事竟成) Wherever there is smoke, there is fire. (无火不生烟。无风不起浪)
Where there is love, there is also wealth and success! (只要有爱就会有成功和财富) 辨析:where引导的状语从句与定语从句的区别:
where引导的地点状语从句直接修饰动词,而在定语从句中where作为关系副词要跟在表示地点的先行词之后。
E.g. Bamboo grows best where it’s wet and rainy. Bamboo grows best in places where it’s wet and rainy. You’d better make a mark where you have any problems.
You’d better make a mark at the place where you have any questions.
原因状语从句
1. because, since, as, for
Because:语气最强,用来回答why的问句,一般表示听话人所不知道的原因和理由;可以用于强调句型,也可被not, only, just, mainly, chiefly, probably等来修饰。 Since:表示人们已知的事实,是不需要强调的原因,通常放在句首。“既然”
As:与since相似,所引出的理由在说话人看来已经很明显,或已为听话人所熟悉而不
需用because加以强调。
For:表示推断的理由,是对前面分句的内容加以解释或说明,并列连词。 总结:as和for引导的主、从句,二者处于平等位置;
because引导的从句显得比主句重要,强调原因;
since引导的从句显得次要,而主句重要,以说明将要做什么事。 E.g. He was punished only because he broke the law.
Since you are an English major, I guess you can help me with this sentence.
As it was getting late, I turned around to start for home.
As Monday is a national holiday, all government offices will be closed. It rained last night, for the ground is wet this morning.
2. now that, in that, seeing that, considering that = since “既然”
e.g. Now that/Seeing that/Considering that he had a certain talent for composition, his English teacher encouraged him to write several essays for college magazine. I am ready to accept your proposal in that I believe it would be the best policy at that point.
3. on the ground(s) that, for the reason that, by reason that
e.g. He is suing for divorce on the ground that her husband deserted her and their
children. He cannot be charged for murder by reason that he was not there when the crime was committed.

suppose, supposing, providing, provided that, assuming that, given that e.g. If we can get over our present difficulties, then everything should be all right. I will accept your explanation if you support it with evidence.

深沉一思:
有人把人生比作自助餐厅,在这里,只要你愿意付出代价和努力,就什么都能得到,但关键是你必须主动、积极,为自己创造一切,你要为自己服务,而不是等着别人来为你服务:
Life’s a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want as long as you are willing to pay the price. You can even get success, but you’ll never get it if you wait for someone to bring it to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.
人生就是一个自助餐厅,只要愿意付出代价,你就什么都能得到。在这里,你甚至可以获得成功,但如果你只是等待别人来为你服务,你就什么都得不到。

B. The more exactly you use your words, the more easily people will understand
you.
C. The more exact your words are, the easier it is for people to understand you. D. The more exact words you use, the more easily people will understand you. 用法要点:

An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have: the older she is, the more interested he is in her. 考古学家可谓是一个女人最好的丈夫人选:因为她越老,他对她越感兴趣。 深沉一思:
