GMAT语法知识点:So as to与 to的区别
GMAT语法知识点相对而言比较散,这就需要考生朋友学会总结,而由于时间问题或者经验,考生朋友都没有太多的时间去进行收集整理,为此小编特进行收集整理,今天我们主要说的是enough的固定搭配这一GMAT语法知识点,希望对大家的复习有所帮助,仅供参考。
So as to跟to并不是完全对等的!so as to里面有as这个连词,隔开前后,前面的统统是过程,后面统统是目的,而to没有连词,如果to do做状语,修饰的是最近谓语动

738. The Emperor Augustus, it appears, commissioned an idealized sculptured portrait, the features of which are so unrealistic as to constitute what one scholar calls an “artificial face.”
· so unrealistic as to constitute
· so unrealistic they constituted
· so unrealistic that they have constituted
· unrealistic enough so that they constitute
· unrealistic enough so as to constitute
Key: A
OG的解释:小编
The verbs are and calls indicate that the sculpture is being viewed and judged in the present. Thus, neither the past tense verb constituted (in B) nor the present perfect verb have constituted (in C) is correct; both suggest that the statue’s features once constituted an artificial face but no longer do so. Also, B would be better if that were inserted after so unrealistic, although the omission of that is not ungrammatical. Choices D and E use unidiomatic constructions with enough: unrealistic enough to constitute would be idiomatic, but the use of enough is imprecise and awkward in this context. Choice A, which uses the clear, concise, and idiomatic construction so unrealistic as to constitute, is best.小编编辑转载注明
