这个题目OG的解释，我看的一头雾水，虽然明白这个题的考点是在于表达的罗嗦累赘，以及时态表达的错位上。可是我怎么也不明白为什么是罗嗦累赘，5个选项有固定搭配考点吗？另外那个事态的进行时更好比一般时态，从哪里判断出来的啊？！谢谢大家的帮助。

1. 没有such as to的用法，正确用法是so as to;
2. so as to 和so that 都可以表示：如此...以致于，但是
             so as to 要求前后逻辑主语一致，连接的两个动作发出者相同，多用于简单系表 结构。
             so that 对前后逻辑主语没有要求。
3. 至于enough，新东方的说法是不符合商业英语的用法，一般为干扰选项。（所以，我在做题时只要看到enough出现在画线部分即认为错，目前做过700多道语法题，尚无例外）

非常感谢楼上的MM，自由发现MM的语法水平真的非常高，自由很感激MM的宝贵帮助，谢谢MM！！！请问，您能再帮忙解释一下关于时态的错位判断的依据吗？这个题目，从哪里可以判断出，一定要用进行时而不能使用一般现在时态呢？

谢谢MM的夸奖，姐姐还在努力中。


我在做这题时，时态并不是主要判断的依据，而是上面提到的固定搭配问题。至于OG上提到的"progressive and ongoing conditions" 读题时也没此感觉，查了查语法书，现在进行时可以表目前情况；用于描写一种状态，往往显得生动，具有感情色彩。
