Question

“as a result ”和“as a result of” 的区别是什么？

Answer 1

as a result of为短语介词，后跟名词、代词等，意为“由于…的原因”相当于because of；as a result为副词用法，意为“结果是”，后面指事情的结果，如： 

The train was delayed as the (a) result of the heavy rain. 

由于大雨的缘故主，火车晚点了。 

He got up very late today. As a result, he missed the first bus.  

他今天起晚了，结果没赶上头班车。
