1."too...to..."结构的用法
The boy is too short to reach the apple.这个男孩太低了而不能够到苹果。
too...to...结构是中学阶段一个很常用的结构,意为"太……而不能……",表示否定的含义。但在下面的情况中却表示肯定的含义:
(1)当在该结构中的too或to前加上否定词not或never等时,该结构即为表示肯定含义的结构。cannot/cannever...too...to...为常见的用法,它可以与cannot/cannever...enoughto... 结构进行转化。如:
Youcan’t be toocareful/careful enough to cross the street.过街时怎么小心都不为过。
(2)当too...to...结构中的副词too后接ready, anxious, eager, glad, willing等形容词时,该结构表达的为肯定的含义。如:
She is too willing to marry him.她很愿意嫁给他。
(3)当too...to...结构中的副词too前面有all,but, only, quite等修饰时,该结构表达的也为肯定的含义。如:
Iam only too pleased to help you.我很高兴帮助您。
2.
so...that与such...that都表示"如此……以至于",但用法不同。
1.so...that...引导结果状语从句的用法有以下几种:
(1)so+adj./adv.+that...
(2)
此句型亦可与"such +a/an+adj.+可数名词单数+that..."句型互换。如:
This was so good a book that I read it twice. = This was sucha good book that I read it twice.
(3)
2.such...that... 可引导结果状语从句,有三种用法:
(1) such +a/an+adj.+可数名词单数+that...。如:
He is such an honest student that we all believehim.
(2)such+adj.+可数名词复数+that...。如:
He has such big feet that no shoes in the shop fithim.
(3)such+adj.+不可数名词+that...。如:

3. ...enough to...结构

enough在英语中既可以用作形容词,又可以用作副词。
(1)当enough用作形容词时,它既可以修饰可数名词,又可以修饰不可数名词;它既可以放在名词前,又可以放在名词后。如:
There was food enough/enough food to last a wholeyear.
有充足的食物,足够吃一整年的了。
(2)当enough用作副词时,它要位于形容词或副词之后。如:
IfI had a long enough holiday, I’d visitEurope, stopping at all the small interesting places.
要是我有足够长的假期的话,我会游览欧洲,在每一处有趣的小地方都停下来看看。
【典例】Although she did not know Boston well, she madeher way _____to the Home Circle Building.
A. easy enough
C. easily enough
错因分析 由于题干中的动词made为一个行为动词,故应用副词修饰,部分考生会因忽略这一点而误选A或B。
解析 本题是对enough用法的考查。由于enough修饰形容词或副词时要位于它们之后,故C为本题的答案。
