陈老师：
介词短语在句中可做各种类型的状语，可以还原成对应类型的状语从句吗？谢谢老师的回答。
解答如下：
介词短语可以做
A:时间状语:
She was born in 1980.
B:地点状语：
She was born in Beijing.
C:方式状语
She went to Beijing by plane.
D:原因状语
Gil was white and trembling with anger.
吉尔气得脸色煞白，浑身发抖。
I felt sick to my stomach with sadness for them.
我为他们感到十分痛心。
He was late for not catching the first bus.
他因没有赶到头班车而迟到。
He apologized to us for being late.
他因知道向我们道歉。
介词短语可以作很作种状语，一般不可以还原为状语从句，但是表示原因介词短语可以改成一个状语从句。
英语中作原因状语的方式较多，除了某些从属连词（如because, as, since, now that, for fear that, for the reason that, for the ground that 等）引导原因状语从句外，还有非谓语动词中的动词不定式和分词、with结构、独立主格结构和少数介词等，其中包括某些短语介词
