because of 后主要接 what 从句。如：He knew she was crying because of what he had said. 他知道她哭是因为他说的话。I’m pissed at him because of what he’s been saying about me 我生他的气，因为他一直在说我。I hope you won’t get into trouble because of what I said to your dad.我希望你不会因为我对你爸爸说的那些话而惹麻烦。People matter because of what they are, not what they have. 人之所以重要，不在于他们拥有什么，而在于他们是什么样的人。
