so ... as to ... 前后主语一致，tornado 怎么会impractical 呢？是说study impractical

so … as to事实上是三个结构的结合，so引出的是状语，as指代句子前面的核心含义，to是不定式引导状语结构(adverbial structure)，此不定式修饰的正是前面的核心动词以及该动词的逻辑主语，所以只有当前面只有一个核心动词而且很明确的时候才能够用so…as to，也正因为修饰成分离被修饰词过远会造成修饰不清，所以to be/do结构不能与前面动词不能太远。

所以对于E选项，be impractical的主语变成tornado，在逻辑上应该是不通的。

而例如，I'm not so stupid as to believe that.这句话，believe的动作是I发出的，才可以用so...as to...结构表达。

个人之见，嘿嘿
