问个语法问题 OG 上的 Although schistosomiasis is not often fatal, it is so debilitating that it has become an economic drain on many developing countries.和这个句子 Although schistosomiasis is not often fatal, so debilitating is it as to become an economic drain on many developing countries.这两个句子哪个对,为什么
另OG说The construction so x as to y is not a correct idiom。RON这边解释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.如果按照RON的解释,那么PREP 08又说Although one link in the chain was demonstrated to be weak, but not sufficiently so to require the recall of the automobile. (incorrect) The official answer is: demonstrably weak, it was not so weak as to require
为什么so weak as to require又是对了,require不是action verb?不是说describes some sort of state/condition才可以用吗?同理Prep 08 还有一道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.”这里的 constitute为什么又是对的?
