cause, make和get都具有“使役”意义。其区别是：
1. cause强调的是什么原因使某人做某事; make则具有强制的意味, 即强迫某人做什么事; get是指以说服或命令之方式让某人做某事。
2.使用cause和get时, 应当用cause / get sb. to do sth. 句型, 而使用make时, 应当用make sb. do sth. 句型。
cause可用于cause sb. sth. (给某人带来……)和cause sb. to do sth. (使某人做某事)结构中。
His unhealthy diet caused him some illness.
他的不健康的饮食给他带来了一些疾病。
I'm afraid I'm causing you much trouble.
恐怕我给你增添很多麻烦。
What caused you to do that
什么原因促使你那么做？
cause还可以用作名词, 意为“原因”, 相当于reason。
Smoking is one of the causes of heart disease.
吸烟是引起心脏病的原因之一。
What was the cause of the accident
造成这一事故的原因是什么
You have no cause to complain.
你没有理由抱怨。
3. Li Wen’s unhappiness began to influence his schoolwork. influence v. & n. 影响，常用于 influence sb to do sth; have an influence on ...; 或be an influence on ...结构。e.g.
1). Lu Xun’s works strongly (影响) millions of people.
2). What Mike that decision (影响...做出决定)
influenced/
had a strong
influence on
influenced to make
influence, affect这两个词的共同意思是“影响”。其区别是：
1. affect着重指一时的“影响”; 而influence则往往指对行为、性格、观点等较长时间的、潜移默化的“影响”。
2. 表示不良影响时只能用affect, 不能用influence。
fail v. 失败；未能(做到)；不及格
fail in sth. 表示“在某方面失败”。
e.g. I failed in everything I tried.
我所有的尝试都失败了。
fail to do sth.表示“未能做到某事”。e.g. She failed to get into art college.
她没能赶上美术课。
3. Sometimes he was absent from
classes and failed his examinations.
In our life, there are many difficulties
lying on your way. Wherever you are, your
parents will love you forever. They are always
proud of everything good you do.
