【知识归纳】

so…that…和such…that…句型，现将两种句型的同义转换方式归纳如下：

有时可以在不变更原意的前提下，将“so…that…”和“such…that…”加以转换，以使语言变得更加丰富多彩。例如：

1. 她非常诚实，大家都信赖她。She is so honest that everybody trusts her.

→She is such an honest girl that everybody trusts her.→She is so honest a girl that everybody trusts her.

2. 他作了一个那么精彩的讲演，以至于出席会议的人都钦佩他。

He made a speech so wonderfully that everyone present at the conference admired him.

→He made so wonderful a speech that everyone present at the conference admired him.

→He made such a wonderful speech that everyone present at the conference admired him.

除上面罗列的常见转换方式外，还有以下几种转换方式：

1. so many / much…that…可转换为such a lot of…that…。例如：

There are so many people in the room that we could not get in.

→There are such a lot of people in the room that we could not get in. （房间里人太多，我们进不去。）

2. so few / little…that…可转换为such a few / a little…that…。例如：

So few people came that the meeting had to be put off.

→Such a few people came that the meeting had to be put off. （人来得这么少，会议不得不推迟。）

3. “so…that+含肯定意义的从句”可转换为“…enough to…”。例如：

He is so old that he can go to school. →He is old enough to go to school. （他到了上学的年龄。）

4. “so…that+含否定意义的从句”可转换为“not…enough to (do sth)”或“too…to (do sth)”。例如：

He is so young that he can”t look after himself. →He is not old enough to look after himself. / He is too young to look after himself. （他年龄太小，自己照顾不了自己。）

5. 可将so和such移至句首，再将主句的主、谓语倒装，以示强调。例如：

It is so hot that we don”t want to go out. → So hot is it that we don”t want to go out.

（天气太热，我们不想出去。）

He made such an excellent speech that everyone admired him.
