（1）目的状语从句常见的引导词
目的状语从句常见引导词有so that和in order that。从句中常含有情态动词will/would或can/could。
例句
a. I turned off the TV so that my roommate could study in peace and quiet.
我关掉了电视，好让我的室友能安静地学习。
b. When I was a child, I would take a flashlight（手电筒） to bed with me so that I could read comic books without my parents’ knowing about it.
c. We climbed high so that we could get a better view.
d. They carved the words on the stone so that / in order that the future generation would remember what they had done.

（2）结果状语从句常见的连接词
结果状语从句常见的连接词有so…that和such…that。从句中一般不带情态动词，且从句都要放在主句之后。如：
a. Sensible Sam: I saw you pushing your bicycle to work this afternoon. Foolish Fred: Yes, I was so late that I didn’t have time to get on it.
b. The food is so bad in the school cafeteria that flies go there to lose weight. 我们学校食堂饭菜质量太差，连苍蝇都去那儿减肥。
注意：不要受汉语思维的影响，而把这里的so改成very或too。这类题型常见于考试改错题。比如我们不能说：
The food is too/very bad in the school cafeteria that flies go there to lose weight.*
（3）注意句中such和so的用法区别（重点掌握）

a. He is such a good teacher that everyone likes him.
b. He got such heavy boxes that he couldn’t carry them by himself.
c. It was such nice weather that we went to the beach.
（It was so nice weather that we went to the beach.*）
d. The weather was so nice that we went to the beach.
2）so为副词，不能直接修饰名词，而是修饰形容词或副词。如：
a. He is so good a teacher that everyone likes him.
b. The teacher is so good that everyone likes him.
c. The boy ran so fast that he caught the early bus.
3）so可与many, much, few以及little搭配，such不可以，如：

b. He has so few friends that he is always lonely.
c. He lost so much money that he didn’t dare to go home.
