- Many critics and grammarians have insistedthatso must be followed by that in formal writing when used to introduce a clause giving the reason for or purpose of an action: 很多批评家和语法学家都坚持认为:在正式的写作中,当用来引入一个表示动作的原因或目的的从句时,so 的后面必须跟有 that : He stayed so that he could see the second feature. 他留了下来以便能看到第二部片子。
- But this rule is best regarded as a stylistic preference;in such clausesthat is frequently omitted even by reputable writers in formal contexts, as inThey will have to double up so (or so that ) room can be found for the new arrivals. · Bothso and so that are acceptably used to introduce clauses that state a result or consequence: 但是这条规则最好被认为是格式上的偏好。在这样的句子中,即使是很著名的作家也在正式的文章中经常省略that , 如在句子他们将不得不两个人睡一张床,以便 (或者 so that ) 新到的人能找到住房 。 So 和 so that 都可以被接受用来引入陈述一个结果或后果的从句: The Bay Bridge was still closed, so (or so that ) the drive from San Francisco to the Berkeley campus took an hour and a half. · 海湾大桥仍然关闭着,因此(或者 so that ) 从旧金山开到伯克利的校园用了一个半小时 。
- So is frequently used in informal speech to string together the elements of a narrative. This practice should not be carried over into formal writing,where the absence of contextual information generally requires that connections be made more explicit. ·Critics have sometimes objected to the use ofso as an intensive meaning "to a great degree or extent,” as inWe were so relieved to learn that the deadline had been extended. This usage is most common in informal contexts,perhaps because unlike the neutralvery, it presumes that the listener or reader will be sympathetic with the speaker's evaluation of the situation. (Thus one would be more apt to sayIt was so unfair of them not to invite you than to sayIt was so fortunate that I didn't have to put up with your company. ) For just this reason,the construction may occasionally be used to good effect in more formal contexts to invite the reader to take the point of view of the speaker or subject: 在非正式的讲话中,so 经常被用来连接叙述的成分。 但是这种做法不能带入正式的写作当中,上下文信息的缺乏通常要求连接明确。批评家们有些时候对so 被用来表示强调的意思“很大程度”提出反对, 如在我们得知最后期限已被推迟的消息时感到了极大的放松 中。 这种用法在非正式的文章中最常用,也许是因为和中性的very 不同, 它假定听众或读者能对讲话者对形势的评价引起共鸣。(因此人们通常会说他们没有邀请你是多么不公平 , 而不是说多幸运啊,我不必再成为你的朋友 )。 正因为这个原因,这个结构有时在正式的文章中也有很好的作用,使读者接受说话人或主题的观点: The request seemed to her to be quite reasonable;这个要求对她来说比较合理;it was so unfair of the manager to refuse. 经理拒绝真是太不公平了。
- But in the absence of stylistic motive,this use ofso should be reserved for familiar discourse. · New England speakers often use a negative form such asso didn't where other varieties would use the positiveso did, as inSophie ate all her strawberries and so didn't Amelia. Since this usage may confuse a speaker who has not previously encountered it,it is best avoided in writing.See Usage Note at as 1但是在没有独树一帜的动机时,在相同的讲话中,so 应该少用。 新英格兰地区的人常使用如so didn't 这一否定形式, 而其他地区则用肯定的形式so did , 如在索菲吃了她所有的草莓,亚美利亚没有 中, 由于这种用法可能使以前没有接触过这种用法的人混淆,所以最好还是避免使用 参见 as1
