624　so that，such…that和so…as to

① so that既可以引導(dǎo)目的狀語從句，也可以引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句，但有區(qū)別。

如果引導(dǎo)目的狀語從句，so that意為“以便，這樣，為了，目的是”，從句中的謂語應(yīng)該有may/might，can/could，will，would，should這類情態(tài)動(dòng)詞，表示“可能，會(huì)”等義。

She studies hard so that she may pass the exam. 她努力學(xué)習(xí)以便能通過考試。

We planted lots of trees in the campus so that our school （should）be beautified. 我們在校園里種了許多樹，以便美化學(xué)校。

② so that引導(dǎo)目的狀語從句，可用in order that代替或改用不定式in order to，so as to。

I sat in the first row in order that/so that I might hear clearly. 我坐在第一排，以便聽得清楚。（=in order to hear，so as to hear）

She bought a villa in the suburb in order that/so that she could spend her weekend there. 她在鄉(xiāng)間買了一幢別墅，以便去那里度周末。（=in order to spend，so as to spend）

So that they shouldn't fail，they were fully prepared. 他們做了充分準(zhǔn)備，以防失敗。

④ so that引導(dǎo)目的狀語從句，表示主句主語的主觀愿望。

⑤ so that引導(dǎo)目的狀語從句時(shí)，有時(shí)可省略so。

⑥ so that如果引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句，意為“結(jié)果，以至于”，前面常用逗號(hào)同主句分開。從句中通常不用情態(tài)動(dòng)詞，表示實(shí)際的結(jié)果怎樣。

He came late，so that he missed the train. 他來晚了，沒有趕上火車。

She was ill，so that she was unable to go to work. 她病了，不能上班了。

⑦ so that引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句時(shí)，so可以提到形容詞、副詞或分詞前。

⑨ so that引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句時(shí)，從句表示的是主句行為的結(jié)果，而非主語的愿望。

He was disappointed so that he meant to give up the plan. 他很失望，打算放棄自己的計(jì)劃。

⑩ so that引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句時(shí)，有時(shí)可省略that。

He studied hard so （that） he passed the entrance examination. 他刻苦學(xué)習(xí)，通過了入學(xué)考試。

提示

結(jié)果狀語從句如果表示“可能的結(jié)果”，要用may，如果表示“必然的結(jié)果”，要用must。

? so…that句型中的that通常只能引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句，意為“如此……以至于”。

? such…that結(jié)構(gòu)不同于so…that結(jié)構(gòu)。so是副詞，修飾形容詞、副詞、動(dòng)詞，such是形容詞，修飾名詞，該名詞前還可有別的修飾語。值得注意的是，such不能同many和much連用，不可說such many students，such much water，應(yīng)說so many students，so much water。

注意比較下面兩個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)：

such a fine view （such修飾a fine view）

so fine a view （so修飾fine）

提示

such 可以修飾單數(shù)名詞、復(fù)數(shù)名詞（such good books）和不可數(shù)名詞（such cool water）。但除so many+復(fù)數(shù)名詞和so much+不可數(shù)名詞結(jié)構(gòu)外，“so+形容詞”之后接的詞只能是單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞或不可數(shù)名詞，不能是復(fù)數(shù)名詞，其結(jié)構(gòu)為：so+形容詞+a/an+單數(shù)名詞。

so good novels

such good novels

so great progress

? such…that既可以表示程度，也可以表示結(jié)果。such…that引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句時(shí)，有時(shí)可改為such…as to結(jié)構(gòu)。

They were not such fools as to believe him. 他們不至于傻到相信他。

He wouldn't be so mean as to do such a thing. 他不會(huì)小氣到做出這樣的事。

提示

如果so…as to所在句中的主語和其后不定式的邏輯主語為同一人或物，可同so…that句型換用，表示結(jié)果。

He got up so early as to catch the train. 他起得早，趕上了火車。
