Question

therefore adv.因此；所以 (1) 我们的钱不够,因此买不成这辆新车。(2) 我病了,所以没能来。(3) 他非常疲倦，所以没能作市场报告。 The adverb therefore is also used to introduce a conclusion that follows based on logic. You'll see this construction a lot in logic, math, and science, for example. Of course, sometimes the conclusions are false, as in this argument: "All fish live in water. A whale lives in water. Therefore, a whale is a fish." A whale is, in fact, a mammal. Therefore, the argument that a whale is a fish is wrong.
