How I Learned to Learn English
Last year, I did not like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke so quickly that I did not understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because of my poor pronunciation, I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything.
Then one day l watched an English movie called Toy Story, I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie! So I began to watch other English movies, too. Although l could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the meaning . I also realized I could get the meaning by listening for just the key words. My pronunciation improved as well by listening to the conversations in English movies. I discovered that listening to something interesting is the secret to language learning. I also learned useful sentences like “It's a piece of cake’’ or “It serves you right” I did not understand these sentences at first. But because wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in a dictionary. Now I really enjoy my English class. I want to learn new words and more grammar so that I can have a better understanding of English movies.

so that的意思是“以致、为了、以便于”，so…that…的意思是“如此……以致”。so that 引导目的状语从句，常放于句中，so…that…中so是副词，常常用来修饰形容词和副词，that引导结果状语从句，常和too…to…结构互换。
e.g. My sister made a model plane so that she could help with her friend studying the science last night.

My sister is too young to go to school. =My sister is so young that she can't go to school.
