练习 1
Bob writes that the "server at station 12 caused the entire network to crash".

What does this mean exactly?
Bob writes that the "server at station 12 caused the entire network to crash".

What does this mean exactly?
The server "caused" the network "to crash". This means that the server was the reason that the network malfunctioned.
Although this might be true, it is not the best definition of the phrase.
This is just preposterous.
The server caused the network to crash, it was not because of the network.
