请问一下，so as to 和 so that 的区别

xdf的老师说在逻辑主语和句子的主语一致的情况下，so as to 比 so that 要简洁，所以优于 so that.

但是我在og11th上面看到的解释，只要是出现了so as to的情况下，都说是awkward。这是怎么回事呢？是不是 so as to 不能选阿

谢谢！

同问,好像OG里面有SO AS TO和SO THAT 同时出现的时候都选SO THAT...

The Emperor Augustus, it appears, commissioned an idealized sculptured portrait, the features of which are so unrealistic as to constitute what one scholar calls an “artificial face.”

(A) so unrealistic as to constitute

(B) so unrealistic they constituted

(C) so unrealistic that they have constituted

(D) unrealistic enough so that they constitute（A）

(E) unrealistic enough so as to constitute

这是ＯＧ１０的８８题，楼上的ＭＭ可以参考一下

就你说的so as to 都没有被选上，感觉ＥＴＳ虽然有时能表现出一定的偏好但却没有恒定的准则，应该是选项中还有什么玄机在．有具体的例子吗？

有这样一道题目：

36. In 1527 King Henry VIII sought to have his marriage to Queen Catherine annulled so as to
            marry Anne Boleyn.

(B) and so could be married to

(C) to be married to

(D) so that he could marry

(E) in order that he would marry

Grammatical construction

This sentence uses the construction x happened so that y could happen; so introduces a clause of purpose
            or result, explaining the reason for the action in the main clause. Henry ... sought to have his marriage ... annulled so that he could may Anne Boleyn. The relationship between the two clauses is clear.

A       So as to marry is not idiomatically correct; it does not identify who will marr

B          This alternative is ungrammatical and illogical: Henry could not marry simply on the basis of seeking an annulment

C          The infinitive must be preceded by a conjunction
            (in order); to marry is preferable to the wordier to he married to

D          Correct. This sentence^'s construction clearly shows the reason that Henry sought an annulment.

E          In order that is followed by may or might, the conditional would marry is incorrect .

The correct answer is D.

其实我认为A选项是可以的。

哦是这个题，ＯＧ说的很清楚了

如果选so as to 会造成歧义是king marry还是queen marry，虽然我们逻辑上都知道Queen不可能marry Anne

但却不能否认歧义的客观存在，借用ＮＮ的一句话，当选项中有没有指代问题的相对完美答案进我们何苦去选可能存在解释不清的矛盾的选项

另外我觉得当so as to 前出现两个Ｎ或者两个代词的时候就要格外心小了,很可能会出现你上面提到的ＸＤＦ说的逻辑主语不一致的问题

so as to + V

要求V的逻辑主语和前面的逻辑主语是同一个

比如:

the guy will work over time so as to finish the project tomorrow.加班的是guy,完成项目的也是guy，两个动作逻辑主语是同一个人，所以正确

再比如：

the boss asked the guy to work over time so as to finish the project tomorrow，这个就不对了，ask的动作是由boss发出的，而work的动作是guy发出的，两个动作逻辑主语不是同一个人，只能用so　that，这个时候用so　as　to的话就不知道project是boss来做还是the　guy来做了

同样，第一个例子里the guy will work over time so that he could finish the project tomorrow.但是在同时可以使用so　that和so　as　to的时候，明显是so　as　to比较简洁，所以要优先考虑so　as　to～

小弟不才～不知道这样解释是不还还有问题～呵呵

嗯，谢谢两位的解释，觉得比以前清楚很多了。

up!
