In fact, without thinking about 'causes and effects', it is nearly impossible to write a well-developed idea, not to mention a well-developed essay, and as a c***equence, we must be familiar with these wo*** and their use.
Therefore / Thus
Therefore: Shows a clear LOGICAL connection between cause (前半句) and the effect (后半句).
Thus: Shortened version of ‘therefore’
'Therefore' can start a sentence (if the sentence before it, is a ‘cause’), or can be placed in the middle of a sentence. Traditionally, if placed in the middle of a sentence, it will use asemi-colon (;) before it, however, it is acceptable and normal to place a comma (,) in front as well.
E.g. IELTS is a difficult exam. Therefore/Thus it is necessary to study a lot before taking it.
IELTS is a difficult exam; therefore/thus it is necessary to study a lot before taking it.
IELTS is a difficult exam, therefore/thus it is necessary to study a lot before taking it.
As a result / As a c***equence
As a result or 'and as a result': shows what the 'result' is.
As a c***equence or 'and as a c***equence'
Because both of these conjunctive phrases use 'as' at the beginning, they can be used as a 'subordinate conjunctive phrase'(从属连词), and placed at the beginning of a sentence, BUT must be followed with 'of'. In other wo***, 'As a result OF' = 'because of'. Without 'of', it means 'so' or 'therefore'. They can also be used in the way 'therefore' is used at the beginning of a sentence, without using ‘of’ (meaning the sentence before it must be a cause).
E.g. As a result of a higher tax on fuel, more financial pressure will be put on citizens and business.
(Here, ‘as a result of’ is used as a从属连词)
E.g. In an effort to reduce traffic congestion, some governments h***e already greatly increased fuel taxes. As a result, traffic congestion has lessened to some degree.
When ‘as a result’is placed in the middle of a sentence to mean 结果, 因此 or 所以, place a comma and an 'and' before it or a semi-colon (;)
........, and as a result, .......
........; as a result, ........
E.g. Cross-border governmental collaboration means problems and soluti*** can be shared, and as a result, the costs of solving regional problems can also be shared.
C***equently / Subsequently
C***equently: This conjunction, along with 'as a result' can be safely used whenever you want to show an effect, result, or c***equence of a cause. Traditionally, 'c***equently' will come after a semi-colon (;), but by simply placing 'and' before it, you can put it after a comma (,).
E.g. Educating the public on the benefits of a healthy diet can help people to become more aware of the dangers of eating too much fast food, and c***equently, young people in particular will at least know the difference between 'healthy food' and 'unhealthy food'.
Subsequently: Shows what happened 'next', and means 'following closely in time and order'. Though it closely resembles 'c***equently', there is a slight difference, as 'subsequently' focuses more on the 'next' thing that happened. 'Subsequently' is an adverb, so often it is placed before a verb to show the next action that happened.
Eg. Many students choose to take a gap year between high school and university. The vast majority subsequently feels eager to return to their studies after taking such a long break.
To make a compound sentence with the above cause and effect conjuncti***, you will need three aspects (clauses).
E.g. If government enacts a new tax on drivers (1:condition),car sales may be affected (2: possible result), and as a c***equence,the economy could be adversely influenced (3: c***equence or conclusion).
*NOTE: the first two clauses are part of the hypothetical (假设)'if' phrase, and it is ONLY after the hypothetical result is shown,'car sales may be affected', that we can use a cause and effect conjunction. We can NOT use a conjunction after the first comma, as the word 'if' is a subordinate conjunction (从属连词).
