such與so表示“如此”“這樣”的意思,出現的頻率極高。你會正確使用such與so嗎?今天我們就來學一學。
一、such的主要結構:
1. such+a/an+adj.+可數名詞單數
如:I have never watched such an exciting match.
我從來沒有看過這么令人激動的比賽。
2. such+adj.+可數名詞復數
如:She walked in with such beautiful flowers in her hands.
她雙手拿著如此美麗的花走進來了。
3. such+adj.+不可數名詞
如:We have to stay at home in such hot weather.
天氣這么熱,我們不得不待在家里。
有時候,上述結構中不出現形容詞。
如:They do not have enough money for such an operation.
他們沒有足夠的錢做這樣的手術。
二、so的主要結構:
1. so+adj./adv.
如:Your school is so beautiful.
你們的學校如此漂亮。
He always does his homework so carefully.
他做作業總是這么認真。
2. so+adj.+a/an+可數名詞單數

我的表弟湯姆是如此強壯的一個男孩。
3. so+many/few+可數名詞復數
如:Betty is very excited to see so many presents on her desk.

4. so+much/little+不可數名詞
這里little的意思是“少量的”。
如:Tony is unhappy because there is so little milk in the bottle.
因為瓶子里的牛奶太少了,托尼不開心。
此外,little如果譯為“小的”意思,不可以用于此結構,要用such來修飾。
如:Look! The lion is chasing such little deer.
看!這頭獅子正在追捕這么小的鹿。
三、so, such常與that從句連用,譯為“如此……以致于……”。
如:Nick is so generous that everyone likes him.
尼克如此的慷慨大方以致于每個人都喜歡他。
It is such an interesting film that I want to see it again.
