此处的 so that 和上文 A worker drove a small handtruck so carelessly that it hit the back of Mr . King\'s legs . 中的 so…that 含义不同。它表示“如此……以致……”，that 引导的结果或程度状语从句。
The film was so moving that we were all moved to tears .
3 . I had to lie to the company and pretended to be a man in order to get a job . 我不得不向公司撒谎并装成一个男人。
〖明晰〗lie 在此作不及物动词，意为“撒谎”，该动词是规则动词。“对 ( 向 ) 某人撒谎”用lie to sb . ( 相当于 lie 作名词时的短语 tell sb . a lie ) 。
It\'s clear that she is lying .
lie 作名词时，也有“谎言”之意，是可数名词。“撒谎”可以表达为 tell a lie 或 tell lies .
Don\'t tell a lie before your parents .
另外，lie 作不及物动词时，也可作“躺；卧”解，是不规则动词。不要把 lie 作“撒谎”解时的规则形式搞混。
I was lying in bed with a bed cold yesterday。

4 . Unless you tell me , I shall not be able to help you . 除非你告诉我，否则我不会帮助你。 ( 如果你不告诉我，我就不会帮助你。 )
〖明晰〗unless 是一个从属连词，用来引导条件状语从句，其自身含有否定意义，相当于“if…not…”，在汉语中常译为“除非……，否则……”。原句的 unless you tell me = if you don\'t tell me .
He will not come unless he is invited . = If he is not invited , he will not come .
Unless I have time , I won\'t come and join you .
5. It is easier for girls to learn foreign languages than boys . 女孩比男孩更易学会外语。
〖明晰〗It is + adj. (for sb) to do sth是一个常用句型。又如：
It’s dangerous to play with fire .
It is weightier than Mount Tai to die for the people .
注意：当表示逻辑主语的性质和内部特征时介词用of连接。如：
It is careless of you to notice nothing of it .
6. I’m sure there is nothing that a woman can’t do . 我相信没有什么事是女人干不了的。
〖明晰〗nothing与can’t同时出现在句子中构成双重否定。
There will be no difficulty in the world which they cannot overcome . 世界上任何困难都是可以克服的。
下面这些句子也是双重否定：
Without air we cannot live even a few minutes .
There is no right to speak without looking into it .
You can’t make something out of nothing . (谚语) 巧妇难为无米之炊。
注意句中的定语从句中的that不要用which ， 因为其先行词是不定代词nothing 。
7. Companies that make telephones and computers and so on prefer to employ women . 制造电话机、计算机等的公司更喜欢雇佣妇女。
〖明晰〗此句没有把比较级的事物说出来，但是prefer 暗含有比较的意味，其含义为更喜欢。prefer的常见搭配有：
1) prefer + n . 2) prefer + -ing 3) prefer + to do 4) prefer sb to do 5) prefer + 宾语从句（注意从句中用虚拟） 6） prefer + 名词 + to + 名词 7）prefer + -ing + to + -ing 8) prefer to do rather than do (注意在句型8) 中的than后常不加to ) 如：
