表示「如此…以致…」的so…that… 和such…that… 是我們初中同學就應該熟練運用的。
兩者的的用法區別也不複雜,只需分清以下幾點:
1,so是副詞,修飾形容詞或副詞。

2,such是限定詞,修飾名詞

3,可數名詞單數有形容詞修飾,so/such都對,但注意結構不同。
so+形容詞+a/an+名詞
such+a/an+形容詞+名詞
不是:
It was so an exciting tripthat we will never forget.
應該是:

這是一次激動人心的旅行,我們永遠不會忘記。

應該是:

4,名詞前面是many/much/few/little,不用such,用so。
