看了og讨论连接里面的内容，深受启发，但是由一个问题请大家确认。
Congress is debating a bill requiring certain employers provide workers with unpaid leave so as to care for sick or newbom children.
(A) provide workers with unpaid leave so as to
(B) to provide workers with unpaid leave so as to
(C) provide workers with unpaid leave in order that they
(D) to provide workers with unpaid leave so that they can
(E) provide workers with unpaid leave and
C,og的解释是不精确不合语法之类的话，没讲什么实际内容。前面的讨论已经说了,C少了can。我想求证：
x give/grant/provide y sth so that it can do ~~
x give/grant/provide y sth in order that it can do ~~
前一句的it指代y, 后一句的it指代x，是不是这样？谢谢大家！
1，so that和in order that后面不会有指代的不同，表目的时，in order that 和 so that意思是一样的，只是in order that更加正式。so that可表结果和目的，可以加或不加情态词。in order that只是表目的，所以一般须加情态词，不加in order that就是unidiomatic。
2，ETS的指代不能和他较真，ETS经常出语法上有2个指代对象的题目，看来ETS认为语义上指代清晰即可。
3，实际上，严格讲这一题的语法指代也是唯一的，只在不定式to provide后找。

我觉得so that 和in order that 表示目的时都应该加情态动词，表示一种愿望（一家之言）
