because和because of的区别在于：because of后面常接名词、代词、动名词或由what引导的从句(但不是直接接从句)，而because后常用于引导让步状语从句，其通常用于表示因果关系，通常用来回答由why引导的疑问句。

1. because是连词，其后接句子；because of是复合介词，其后接名词、代词、动名词、what从句等。

例如：

• I didn’t buy it because it was too expensive.我没有买是因为它太贵了。
• He is here because of you (that).他为你(那事)而来这里。
• He lost his job because of his age.由于年龄关系他失去了工作。
• We said nothing about it, because of his wife’s being there.因为他妻子在那儿，我们对此只字未提。
• He knew she was crying because of what he had said.他知道她哭是因为他说的话。

注：because of之后可接what从句，但不能接that从句或没有引导词的句子。

例如：

• 他因病未来。
• 误：He didn’t come because of he was ill.
• 误：He didn’t come because of that he was ill.
• 正：He didn’t come because he was ill.
• 正：He didn’t come because of his illness.

2. because所引导的从句除用作原因状语外，还可用作表语。

例如：

• It is because he loves you.那是因为他爱你。

而复合介词because of所引导的介词短语通常用作状语而不用作表语。

例如：

• 他因雨缺席。
• 误：His absence was because of the rain.
• 正：His absence was due to the rain.
• 正：He was absent because of the rain.

但是有时若主语是代词(不是名词)，也可以用because of引出的短语作表语。

例如：

• It is just because of money.那只是因为钱的原因。
• That was because of his sickness.那是因为他生病的原因。
