例句：

Production has come to a halt owing to the lack of raw materials.

"由于缺少原料,生產(chǎn)已陷入停頓。"

例句：

All this was owing to ill health.

這全是由于健康不好的關(guān)系所致。

二、詞義辨析：

due to,owing to,because of,thanks to

這些詞組均表示“由于”之意。 due to用于較莊重的書(shū)面語(yǔ)中，側(cè)重“起因于”，在句中多作表語(yǔ)，有時(shí)作狀語(yǔ)。 owing to可以和due to換用，但在句中多作狀語(yǔ)，也可作表語(yǔ)。 because of著重某種原因的理由，在句中通常作狀語(yǔ)。 thanks to突出一種感激之情，含“多虧”意味。

三、參考例句：
