2、as a result 作为一个最终结果的意思，例如：

3、as the result of 是作为......结果，由于
While Paul is describing this behavior as the result of wayward passions, the chief sin is idolatry and separation from the one true God.

4、以上都是表示因果的连词，但是，各自的用法和位置还是有些区别的。首先the是表示特指，后半句为前半句原因的唯一结果。而a是没有限定的，后者是前者的结果（结果可以不止是一种，唯一的）。

2）as a result of以及as the result of 它们都可以接宾语的成分。可放在句中:They are taken into prison as the(a) result of cutting trees without permission. 或者放在句首:As a result of weather, all the crops grow well.
