语言点讲解
1. The drop is so great that anyone inside the vehicle is lucky to survive. (P12)
本句中含有so ... that ... 句型。 so / such ... that ... 意为“如此……以至于”，引导结果状语从句。使用该句型时要注意以下几点：
a. so是副词，常修饰形容词或副词；such是形容词，常修饰名词。“so + adj. + a / an + n. ”相当于“such + a / an + adj. + n.”。如：
It was so beautiful a day / such a beautiful day that we decided to go to the beach.
那天天气很好，因此我们决定去海滩。
b. 如果被修饰的是不可数名词或复数可数名词，一般只用such ... that ...。如：
He has made such great progress that his parents are very pleased with him.
他进步很快，他的父母对他很满意。
They are such interesting novels that I want to read them once again.
这些小说非常有趣，我想再读一遍。
c. 当被修饰的名词前有many, much, few, little(表示“少的”)等词时，通常要用so ... that ...。如：
He made so many mistakes that he failed the exam.
他出了那么多错以至于他考试不及格。
