OG 88 vs. OG 166 so that/so as to

薰衣紫草

这个帖子以前发过, 可是其中的解释不能说服我. 顶了一下没人理. 我想是贴子太长了看的累, 所以再重起一个, 请斑主见谅.

88.         The Emperor Augustus, it appears, commissioned an idealized sculpture 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

136. 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（A）

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

88题OG中对C的解释：the present perfect verb have constituted (in C) is NOT correct that suggests that the statue’s features once constituted an artificial face but no longer do so. C中的现在完成时表示该动作到现在为止已经完成了，不再延续，因而是错误的。
136题中对A的解释：是合乎习语的。为什么schistosomiasis 在A中用现在完成时表达它是一种经济实惠的排水物质，就可以用现在完成时，而不产生如88题中C的错误呢？

so that/so as to出了看逻辑主语一致和表语结构外还有其他区别吗?

MM观察的很细致. 我觉得两道题都是客观事实, 用现在完成时都不好. 那么为什么在OG136中用完成时就是正确的呢? 我觉得还有一点. 就是答案是比出来的. 如果没有别的答案对, 就选最好的.

关于so that/so as to我主要是通过逻辑主语来确定.

多谢版主.

虽然自己也经常回一些帖子告诉别人"答案是比出来的", 但有时候就是不死心啊. ..

不识庐山真面目, 只缘身在此山中.

关于so that/so as to我主要是通过逻辑主语来确定.

也就是说,如果so that/so as to都可以用,优先用so as to 吗?(因为同时符合逻辑主语)

多谢｀

我想是因为 so as to更加简洁，当然是选项中没有其他错误的情况下（一般不可能发生 ）

谢谢welkin``

我想是因为 so as to更加简洁，

是因为so as to+do

然后 so that加从句吗?

welkin

不好意思现在才看到 不过对so as to已经有了一些新的看法，这里用的是so adj as to表结果， so that 可表结果(that从句中不加情态动词），还可以表目的（从句中家情态动词）

OG88中间D主要是enough用的不好

请问136C中的so as to为什么不对呢？

除了答案是比较除了的以外,还有一条同样重要的原则是:尊重原意.

看两题的a中用了什么时态,是不能轻易改变的.

其实语言很灵活,离不开语境,sc只是可能把一篇文章中的一句话提除了设计题目,我们不知道其时态是根据本来适用的什么环境来的.

所以才有不轻易改变文章时态,除非有明显逻辑错误这个原则(白勇)

好像突然想明白了,也不知对不对.CONSTITUTE 是短暂的动作,而BECOME是长期的动作,所以短暂的动作用现完就是已经完成不再继续,而长期的动作就可以表示一直持续到现在.好像又是从动词本身来说,从表达的意思来说.希望指教!!
