so that, so…that 和 such…that 用法归纳

注：① 当such…that之间用“不定冠词 + 形容词 + 单数名词”时，可以用so…that替换，但得将不定冠词和形容词颠倒位置。例如：

That was such an important party that I had to take part in it.

→ That was so important a party that I had to take part in it.

② 当such…that之间的可数名词前用many或few修饰，不可数名词前用much或little修饰时，只能用so…that构成结果从句。例如：

I’ve got so few apples that I cannot divide them among the children.

I have so much homework to do that I can’t go to the cinema with you.

③ 当little表示“小”而不是“少”的意思时，仍然用such…that. 试比较：

They are such little children that they cannot do the work well.  这些孩子太小，他们做不好这项工作。

I have so little money that I can’t buy the computer. 我的钱太少买不起这部电脑。

such…that万不可与such…as混用。such…that中的that是连词，用来引导状语从句，在从句中不充当任何成分；而such…as中的as是关系代词，用来引导定语从句并在从句中担当主语、宾语或表语。试比较：

Zhangjiajie is such a marvelous place that everyone wants to visit it. 张家界是如此神奇的地方，人人都想去游玩。（that引导状语从句）

Zhangjiajie is such a marvelous place as everyone wants to visit. 张家界是如此一个人人都想去游玩的神奇的地方。（as引导定语从句并作宾语）
