for even though it was still summer(for后面必须重复主语吗)

Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold.


但紧接着他就开始抱怨那里的天气了。 因为即使那时仍为夏季,但雨总是下个不停,而且常常冷得厉害。


for 在这里为连词,为所陈述的事说出原因。它与 because不同,不能用于句首。并且在for后面必须重复主语:

I don't have a car, for I can't afford it.

为什么for even though it was still summer, 这句没有重复主语he呢?

网友认为 for作为并列连词表示原因,for分句的主语必须是重复前一分句的主语。不知网友是从哪里听到这个错误的说法的。这完全是没有根据的错觉,是错误的认识。下面几部词典的例句足以说明问题,for分句的主语与前一分句的主语都是不相同的,但他们都没有错误。你的句子中,for后的分句的主语为表示天气的非人称代词,前一分句的主语为人称代词he, 这没有任何错误的,只不过后一分句本身是个带有让步从句的主从复合句而已。希望你通过今天的提问,消除疑惑,修正你以前的错误观点。另外,学习语法要通过正规的语法书,以免被不正确的观点误导。
