We use this pattern to describe a person’s personality and ability

Ø Sandy is careful enough to notice small changes around her.
Ø Kitty is generous enough to share her things with others
Ø Simon is polite enough to queue in public.

Step 3 Presentation
该句型常用描述人物特征的形容词。如
good kind nice clever right careful
rude wise foolish stupid selfish careless
wrong cruel silly honest generous
Pay attention
1. enough是副词，修饰前面的形容词。enough用作副词时，位置在被修饰词的后面。
He is old enough to go to school.
Andy is strong enough to be a player.
2. 在使用本句型的时候，要注意主语和be动词的一致性。形容词前没有任何诸如very，quite等之类的修饰词。

此句型可以和so …that …互换。
Example: He is outgoing enough to make friends easily.
= He is so outgoing that he can make friends easily.
