1.believe與believe in
動詞believe的含義為“相信”、“認為”:

I believe so.
我認為在。
believe in可以表示“信仰”、“相信……的存在”、“相信……的價值”:

這個短語還可以表示“信賴(人格、力量等)”:

我從沒有信賴過約翰。
試比較:

我相信他(的話)。(=I believe his words.)
2.because與 because of
because只能作連詞用,后面接從句:
You can't remember his name, because you aren't really thinking.
你想不起他的名字是因為你沒有真正努力去想。
I want to go home now, because I'm tired.
現(xiàn)在我想回家,因為我累了。
because of是介詞短語,后面不可以跟從句,只能跟名詞或代詞。它既可以位于句首,也可以位于句子中間:
Because of the rain, we have to stay at home.
因為下雨,我們不得不呆在家里。
Because of you, we have to put the meeting off.
因為你的緣故,我們已把會議推遲了。

由于他父親的病,他今天缺席。
3.can與 be able to
can表示天生的或學到的能力時,只能用于現(xiàn)在時和過去時(could),而不可用于將來時。將來時中表示能力時必須用be able to。在現(xiàn)在時和過去時中,can/could與be able to一般可以互換,在完成時中一般用be able to:

他從來都沒能把自己的車開進車庫。(現(xiàn)在完成時)
