result

result from, result in

这两个短语的意思正相反:result from表示“由…引起或产生”,句子的主语指结果, from的宾语指起因; result in表示“产生或导致某种结果”,句子的主语指起因, in的宾语指结果。例如:

The international tension results from the imperialists' policy of aggression and hegemonism.国际紧张局势是帝国主义的侵略政策和霸权主义造成的。

The accident resulted in three deaths.这次事故造成三人死亡。

result from, arise from, originate from

这三个短语意思相近。它们的区别是：

result from强调“结果”, arise from侧重“发生”, originate from侧重说明“来源出处”。例如:

The nation's troubles result from the government's stupidity.政府的愚蠢造成了国家的动荡不安。

Development arises from the contradictions inside a thing.事物的发展起因于内部的矛盾。

All theories originate from practice and in return serve practice.任何理论都来源于实践,反过来又为实践服务。

in result, in the result

这两个短语的意思不同：in result表示“结果”; in the result则表示“最终〔最后〕结果”。例如:

The dam broke and in result the land was flooded.大坝决口了,结果土地被淹。

You took a great risk, though in the result it did not turn out nearly so hardly as it might have.你冒了一次很大风险,虽然最后结果并不像原来可能造成的那么糟糕。
