4.given that 考慮到；鑒于

5.granted/granting that 假定

注：對于granted/granting that引導(dǎo)的狀語從句有以下兩種看法：
(1) granted/granting that引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句
①李慰萱主編的《英語連詞用法辨析》(福建教育出版社 1988年12月第1版) P 70：granted/granting (that) 從屬連詞，等于even though， even supposing that, 作“即使”，“假定”，“就算”等解，引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句，表示將某事實作讓步的假說并引為議論的前提。that常可省略，例如：
Granting that this is true, how does it answer your argument?
Granting that he has enough money to buy the house, it doesn’t mean he’s going to do so.
②孟德杰主編《英語關(guān)聯(lián)詞詞典》(中國國際廣播出版社 1991年11月北京第1版) P38：granted/granting that 【邊連】【引：讓步】 假定，就算
Granted that it is so, what follow?
Granting that he has enough money to buy the house, it doesn’t mean he’s going to do so.
(2) granted/granting that既可以引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句，又可以引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句
①趙俊英編著的《英語副詞用法•轉(zhuǎn)換形式詞典》(山東友誼出版社 1999年10月第1版) P834：granted/granting that作“假定”解時，引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句。例如：
Granted that it is so, what follow?
作“盡管；即使”解時，引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句。例如：
Granting that he has enough money to buy the house, it doesn’t mean he’s going to do so.
Granted that you’ve made some progress, you should not be conceited.
Granting that this is true, you are still in the wrong.
②靳梅林等主編的《英語連接詞》(河北教育出版社 1989年4月第1版) P119：granted that (或granting that) 也可以引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句，表示“即使”。這與它引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句的情況是不同的，其區(qū)別主要在句子的含義方面：在表示讓步時，主句與從句之間多含有一種對立的概念；而在表示條件時，主句與從句之間一般沒有對立的概念。試比較：
Granted that you’ve made some progress, you should not be conceited. (表示讓步)
Granted that you’ve made some progress, you should be satisfied. (表示條件)
Granting that he has enough money to buy the house, it doesn’t mean he’s going to do so. (表示讓步)
Granting that he has enough money to buy the house, he’s going to do so. (表示條件)
Granted that he was drunk, that is no excuse for his fault. (表示讓步)
Granted that he was drunk, that is an excuse for his fault. (表示條件)
Granting that this is true, you are still in the wrong. (表示讓步)
Granting that this is true, you are surely right. (表示條件)

孟德杰主編的《英語關(guān)聯(lián)詞詞典》(中國國際廣播出版社 1991年11月北京第1版) P82認(rèn)為：in the event that 屬于復(fù)合連詞，引導(dǎo)條件狀從句。例如：
