OG12 SC-37 关于so as to do 的用法

37.Although schistosomiasis is not often fatal, it is so
debilitating that it has become an economic drain on
many developing countries.

(A)it is so debilitating that it has become an
economic

(B)it is of such debilitation, it has become an
economical

(C)so debilitating is it as to become an economic

(D)such is its debilitation, it becomes an
economical

(E)there is so much debilitation that it has become
an economical

问题：C为什么不对呢？我查了一些资料，首先so... as to后面的动作发出的逻辑主语要跟as前面的主语一致，C也满足呀~然后牛津词典上也有个例句：I'm not so stupid as to believe that!C好像也符合呀~求NN帮看一下！~谢谢啦~

谢谢baby的提醒，我已经找到了！~
in general, you don't use so ADJ as to VERB unless the VERB describes some sort of state/condition. i.e., if the verb is an action verb, this construction generally isn't used.
for instance,
i am so ugly as to be viscerally repulsive to women. --> this works, because the verb “to be” describes a state/condition.
i am so ugly as to repel women on sight. --> you generally wouldn't see this in good writing, as “repel” is an action verb; the sentence would probably be written as i am so ugly that i repel women on sight.

再次非常感谢！！

怎么没有人呀~~自已顶一下！~另外OG的解释是The construction so x as to y is not a correct
idiom.！我觉得OG的解释不对~不知道问题出在哪里了~~

不应该倒装吧。

为什么不可以倒装呢？难道so as to不能用倒装吗？

顶！我也觉得这个题疑点很多，so as to 不是说更简洁吗？怎么og上说it's not a correct idiom???

恩因为C it是代词，所以部分倒装。
一直不懂为什么OG说 so x as to y is not a correct idiom.
另外become不是action verb（不知道是不是我们常说的及物，不及物动词）吧，also describes a state/condition,属于linking verb(连系动词)

RON的说法挺认可的：
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.”
so unrealistic as to constitute[相当于be ]
so unrealistic they constituted
so unrealistic that they have constituted
unrealistic enough so that they constitute（A）
unrealistic enough so as to constitute

constitute可以做linking verb，也可以做transitive verb，在本题是linking verb.
[linking verb, not in progressive] to be considered to be something　Failing to complete the work constitutes a breach of the employment contract.　The rise in crime constitutes a threat to society.

对了，baby，那按照RON说的和下面那人说的，become不是action verb，也能describe state or condition呀？那C为什么不能算对呢？不懂了

我认为是这样的，你可以再搜搜帖子。XDF李希强老师讲的C项错在so as to不能+句子，仅供参考。
