The teacher called Tim’s mother __________ what he had done in the test.
A.because ofB.becauseC.sinceD.as
A

试题分析:考查近义词的用法辨析。本题四选项都可表原因。because,since 和as虽然都表可以表原因,但是它们是从属连词,后面接原因状语从句,故不能选。而because of是介词短语,后面要接宾语。what he had done是一个宾语从句作宾语,故选because of。句意:老师因为Tim在考试中的表现打电话给他的母亲。
点评:本题四选项都可表原因。because,since 和as虽然都表可以表原因,是从属连词,而because of是介词短语,后面要接宾语。类似的结构还有表假设的in case与in case of的区别。
